Why does God care so much?
Deuteronomy 10.14-16
“Behold, to the LORD your God belong heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth with all that is in it. Yet the LORD set his heart in love on your fathers and chose their offspring after them, you above all peoples, as you are this day. Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no longer stubborn.”
What is His motive in requiring so much of His people? Nothing that inheres in the creatures; rather, God’s motive in giving this Law for our good is that He loves us. Of His own free will He set His love on our forefathers, entering into His covenant with them and fulfilling all the terms of the covenant through our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Cor. 1.20). In Jesus Christ we attain to God’s precious and very great promises, and, through these, actually participate in the very life of God – the life sketched out in His Law
Thus, God’s covenant love, redemptive purpose, and sanctifying intent come together in His Law, for the good of His people whom He loves.
