The Father’s Embrace

“The Father in the gift of His Son has put Himself under eternal obligation to returning sons. Having satisfied the demands of His own holy law, the Father must open His mighty arms and embrace every returning son. And he must do it every day. He has promised to do it (Luke 15:11–32; 1 John 1:8–10), and God cannot lie (Heb. 6:13–20).”
