The Creator sent his son to earth because he is a personal God. In the patriarchal age, he spoke directly to the fathers of the families. He did not wait for them to be at worship, but spoke to them right where they were. Even in Old Covenant times, he desired a personal relationship. He shows that he loves us, by the fact that he is strict, and wants us to be the best we can be.

In the law of Moses, he gave many rules and regulations that involved the personal lives of his people. Although it was nearly impossible to keep all those laws, it shows he was very concerned about them. Perhaps he wanted them to learn they could not work enough to save themselves.

Every time they sinned, they were punished. Every time they did right they were blessed. Every time they left God, he pleaded for them to come back, and every time they did, he welcomed them back. This shows that he is truly a loving deity, who provides a way for us to be restored even before we do wrong. He will do everything in his power to keep his us from destroying ourselves with sin.
