God didn't have to plan our salvation. He didn't have to do anything to fix Adam's selfish act that caused the eternal separation of humankind from our Creator. If God had so chosen, He could have erased it all and began anew, with a new earth, new heaven, and a new Adam. There is no way for us to understand why God didn't speak sinful man out of existence the moment Adam sinned.
The birth, life and the death of our Lord Jesus Christ is absolutely amazing.
That is grace! Nothing but grace!
Jesus' resurrection is truly the awesome grace of God.
If God had so desired, He could have destroyed the entire creation when sinful man laid hands on the Son of God and nailed Him to the cross. Even before, when Jesus was wrongly put on trial, the end of all things would have been justified. The horrible, sin-darkened, spiritually blind humankind laid hands on the God-Man to kill Him to try and get rid of the truth of the guilt in their hearts.

God didn't destroy them. What grace!
God provided the 'death' of all humankind so He could prove He loves us beyond our comprehension.
Jesus spoke such a huge truth that reverberated through all history and through the entire universe when he cried "It is finished!"
That Jesus resurrected from the grave to prove that His sacrifice for our sin was all taken care of forever is something we should never, ever take for granted.
"Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit" Psalm 32:1,2.
In 1 Corinthians, when Paul is explaining the meaning of communion, he warns we should not take the Lord's supper in the wrong manner. We need to examine and assess our hearts and minds before approaching the Communion service. Jesus asks us to look at our faith in what He did for us. The cross needs to be brought to mind and remembered. Think about it.
