Christ lived it and breathed it; therefore, it is not surprising that the Bible is full of stories associated Jesus with Compassion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Compassion means everything to Jesus. It took a great deal of care for the Son of God to leave his blissful throne in heaven to suffer and die for humanity on earth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">No matter how simple his salvation seems, we still need to remember that we were drowning in the mire of sin, and Christ came to save us because\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">he has Compassion<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Bible tells us that Jesus came to die for us while we were yet sinners \u2013 and are completely unworthy of his affection (Romans 5:8).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Indeed, if we were worthy, we would have understood his ways and be holy, but Christ still came despite our unworthiness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yes, the coming of Jesus took great Compassion. Christ saw that we were headed for destruction, and he did not want that to happen, so he came to save us.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?asin=B07GMSZ3J5&amp;preview=inline&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_MOgpFb7K0DAVJ&amp;tag=yfmt210-20\" width=\"336\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With a heart-full of Compassion, Jesus came!<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Being a loving Son of the living God, Jesus was always a caring being.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When he came to earth, he further demonstrated compassion through his stories and how he lived.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Christ led an exemplary life, largely for his disciples and those who believed in him, so they could all see how he handled issues, and we act as he did.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It\u2019s All About Cares<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Today, Jesus expects us to read (and re-read) the stories that he has told us. He also wants us to apply the lessons learned to our lives. In short, Christ wants us to be living examples as he was.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Nothing will be more satisfying than the Savior seeing us living as he has shown us.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The chapters in the book\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Pinnacle of Compassion\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">have been written to see Christ in his moment of ministry and we emulate his perfect example.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is easier to learn and emulate what has been illustrated for us as we can learn from this book.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/the-pinnacle-of-compassion\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-52145 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/pinnacle-of-compassion-audiobook-290x300.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 290px) 100vw, 290px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/pinnacle-of-compassion-audiobook-290x300.png 290w, https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/pinnacle-of-compassion-audiobook-284x293.png 284w, https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/pinnacle-of-compassion-audiobook-244x252.png 244w, https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/pinnacle-of-compassion-audiobook.png 600w\" alt=\"pinnacle of compassion\" width=\"290\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The author (James Taiwo) has picked different stories from the Bible that explain compassion.
