1Jn 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

According to that verse why did God send Christ into the world and did it glorify Him

What do we see in that verse BF:
1] before we loved God
2] He loved us
3] He sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins

As I have said more than once BF, Christ's faithfulness glorified the Father. Why do you have such a problem with that?

Was He faithful here dying for sins of the people ? Heb 2:17

Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

The Cross was the top achievement God ever had done period

He act like Christs faithfulness/obedience had nothing to do with the Cross for the sins of His People. Thats the main reason He came into the world. He said once Jn 12 27-28

27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. What hour is speaking of ?
