Christ knows everything about the believer and still loves the believer.
John 10:12 "He who is a hireling, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees, and the wolf snatches them, and scatters them. /A hireling is a hired hand who would never have as much desire for the sheep as the...
