Quote from Tim Keller

Here is a quote from The Reason for God, pg 192.

“God did not inflict pain on someone else, but rather on the Cross absorbed the pain, violence, and evil of the world into himself.  Therefore the God of the Bible is not like the primitive deities who demanded our blood for their wrath to be appeased.  Rather, this is a God who becomes human and offers his own lifeblood in order to honor moral justice and merciful love so that someday he can destory all evil without destroying us.”
