# This is why the Father loves me: I lay down my life

God's eternal plan was for God the Son to give his life to pay for the sins of humanity. Jesus's death on the cross reveals the intense love of the Son for the Father and of the Father for the Son.

# Father

This refers to God the Father. It is best to translate “Father” with the same word that your language uses to refer to a human father.

# loves

The kind of love that comes from God is focused on having good things happen to others even when those good things do not happen to the one who loves. This kind of love cares for others, no matter what they do.

# I lay down my life so that I may take it again

"I allow myself to die in order that I may bring myself back to life"
