One of the most intriguing things about God is that He bases His right to rule us not on His power but on the fact that He keeps His promises. That is why "King of Kings and Lord of Lords" is written on Yeshua's thigh: In Abraham's day, one put one's hand under the thigh when swearing an oath.
God did not NEED to sacrifice His Son; He did so to reveal His love. He did not NEED to fulfill prophecy; He did so to prove His trustworthiness. He did not NEED to Incarnate and live perfectly under His own rules; He did so to demonstrate His righteousness. Therefore, we who know the Messiah Yeshua are no fools to love Him, trust in Him, and submit to His judgment.
Shalom.
