Father's - the Greatest Sacrifice
By G.W. North0GEN 22:1G.W. North emphasizes that while the sacrifice of the Son is monumental, the Father also makes significant sacrifices, as illustrated in the story of Abraham and Isaac. The emotional turmoil experienced by Abraham as he prepared to sacrifice Isaac reflects the profound love and pain of the Father in the Godhead. Ultimately, the narrative reveals that the true essence of sacrifice lies in the voluntary nature of God's love, where the Father is seen as the one who makes the greatest sacrifice by allowing the Son to be slain. This act symbolizes the necessity of death and resurrection for eternal life, highlighting the depth of God's love and the reality of sacrifice within the Trinity.
