[Here is a link to an excellent article at MatthewsHouseProject.com:
On this first day of lent I thought it appropriate to mention the reason for any hope we may have...that reason is the Death and Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ - the Lamb who allowed Himself to be slaughtered so that we might be saved from destruction...so that we might know love and beauty instead of wandering lost in the darkness of our own sinfullness and misery unto death.
"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; that whoever believes may in Him have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him.
He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the judgement, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil.
For everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.
But he who practices the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God. - John 3:14-21]
