Did God send His Son into the world to take our problems away?
No. God sent Him to give us something within that enables us to face our problems. In His plan, God provided every solution and wrapped them all in a package called the Son of God, the Lord of Glory, the Prince of Peace—the Lord Jesus Christ. We can lay hold of the solutions—if we take hold of the Savior.
