Jesus Christ came not to condemn you but to save you, knowing your name, knowing all about you, knowing your weight right now, knowing your age, knowing what you do, knowing where you live, knowing what you ate for supper and what you will eat for breakfast, where you will sleep tonight, how much your clothing cost, who your parents were. He knows you individually as though there were not another person in the entire world. He died for you as certainly as if you had been the only lost one. He knows the worst about you and is the One who loves you the most. If you are out of the fold and away from God, put your name in the words of John 3:16 and say, “Lord, it is I. I’m the cause and reason why Thou didst on earth come to die.” That kind of positive, personal faith and a personal Redeemer is what saves you. If you will just rush in there, you do not have to know all the theology and all the right words. You can say, “I am the one He came to die for.” Write it down in your heart and say, “Jesus, this is me– Thee and me, ” as though there were no others. Have that kind of personalized belief in a personal Lord and Savior. A.W. Tozer
About This Quote

The above quote from the Book of John 3 is from the Bible. In this quote, Jesus Christ identified himself with all people. He said that he knew who each person was and that he would die for them. It is important to appreciate that Jesus Christ did not start this practice of identifying himself with people while on earth.

He had done this while alive in the flesh. Everyone who believes in him should do it while they are alive, but until then, they should believe in him.
