&lt;p&gt;Repeat this with me.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do you know what this verse means?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It means that even though we didn’t deserve it, God loved and loves us.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Who did Jesus die for?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Did He die for you and me? Yes.&amp;nbsp; Did He die for those who crucified Him? Yes. What did he say on the cross. &lt;strong&gt;“Father, forgive them for they know not what they are doing.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Acts 5:33-40New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;33&amp;nbsp;When they heard this, they were enraged and wanted to kill them.&amp;nbsp;34&amp;nbsp;But a Pharisee in the council named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, respected by all the people, stood up and ordered the men to be put outside for a short time.&amp;nbsp;35&amp;nbsp;Then he said to them, “Fellow Israelites,[&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%205:33-40#fen-NRSVCE-31356a&quot; title=&quot;See footnote a&quot;&gt;a&lt;/a&gt;]consider carefully what you propose to do to these men.&amp;nbsp;36&amp;nbsp;For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined him; but he was killed, and all who followed him were dispersed and disappeared.&amp;nbsp;37&amp;nbsp;After him Judas the Galilean rose up at the time of the census and got people to follow him; he also perished, and all who followed him were scattered.&amp;nbsp;38&amp;nbsp;So in the present case, I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone; because if this plan or this undertaking is of human origin, it will fail;&amp;nbsp;39&amp;nbsp;but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them—in that case you may even be found fighting against God!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They were convinced by him,&amp;nbsp;40&amp;nbsp;and when they had called in the apostles, they had them flogged. Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.&lt;/p&gt;
