Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

Mark 1:38

5. To bear witness to the Truth.

This verse tells us that Jesus came to show us that there can be no compromise with sin. He was made sin for us that we might have fellowship with God. He did not come to make peace with a world that was sinful.

For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

12. To save sinners.

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
1 Timothy 1:15

For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.
Luke 9:56

For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.
John 3:17

13. To minister and to give His life a ransom for many.

Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many.

14. To finish the work of the Father.

Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish His work.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

16. To put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

For then must He often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
Hebrews. 9:26

17. To take away our sins.

And ye know that He was manifested to take away our sins: and in Him is no sin. 1 John 3:5

18. To die upon the Cross.

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.
John 12:27

19. That we may be adopted as sons of the Living God.

But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

20. That we might live through Him.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

22. To bless us.

Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

23. To destroy the works of the devil.

He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
1 John 3:8

24. To make it possible for the righteousness of the law to be fulfilled in us through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Romans 8:3,4.
