God's gambit
A gambit is a strategic move, often in chess but also in politics or business, where a player sacrifices something up front for future gain.
In biblical terms a cosmic gambit happened when God the Father sacrificed His Son...
John 3:16 KJVS
[16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Colossians 2:14-15 KJVS
[14] Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; [15] And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
2 Corinthians 13:4 KJVS
[4] For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
Philippians 2:8-9 KJVS
[8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
1 Corinthians 2:8 KJVS
[8] Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it , they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
