"But He did not die that way?"
"He could not, for He is the glorious Son of God. He only tasted death for us; that we might not drink the bitter cup to eternity."
"Aunt Harry," said Dolly, "is all that true?"
"Certainly."
"When did He do that?"
"It is almost nineteen hundred years ago. And since then, if any one trusts His word and is willing to be His servant, Jesus loves him, and keeps him, and saves him, and makes him blessed for ever."
"But why did He do that? what made Him?"
"His great love for us."
"Us?" Dolly repeated.
"Yes. You and me, and everybody. He just came to save that which was lost."
