The Legal and Vital Work of Salvation, Part 3: Part 3: Was Jesus God's Backup Plan — or Was He the Plan All Along?
Dr. Abel Damina
What if the cross wasn't God's emergency response to sin — but His plan from the very beginning? In this episode of Reintroducing Jesus, Beyond Religion, Dr. Abel Damina teaches that "redemption is not an afterthought" and that "Jesus has been the plan before man was created." Walking through Romans 8, he shows that God's foreknowledge of us always came before His predestination for us — meaning God "does not react," He "proacts" in love, giving up His Son ahead of time, for all. You'll walk away seeing that your salvation was never plan B, and that God's love for you was settled long before religion ever tried to explain it.
