"...God clearly shows and proves His own love for us, by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8). " For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8-9).
While we were Still Sinners
As it is written and forever remains written, "There is none righteous [none that meets God’s standard], not even one. There is none who understands, there is none who seeks for God. All have turned aside, together they have become useless; There is none who does good, no, not one (Romans 3:10-12). Yet God in His infinite Wisdom, Grace, and Mercy clearly showed and proved His love for us, by the fact that while we were still sinners, He sent His Son Jesus Christ to die for us (John 3:16, Romans 5:8). God made a way [John 14:6] in spite of.
Salvation can Only be Received by God's Grace through Faith in Jesus
There is no way to earn our way into Heaven. One must receive Salvation through Faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work on the Cross. God graciously sent His only begotten Son Jesus to take our place on the Cross. A death made for us. His Crucifixion is what made it possible for us to be reconciled back to God. “For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16). And He did it while we were still sinners because He loves us.
In God's Eyes
God loves us and wants us to be free to be loved; an unconditional love free of judgement free of lies. Not everyone will believe or receive. There will be mockers of God's promise to come. Men will grow tired of the wait not remembering that God's timing is not like ours. God will keep His promises as He is patient not wishing that any man perish but come to repentance (2 Peter 3:3-9) "......, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, so death spread to all people [no one being able to stop it or escape its power], because they all sinned. Sin was [committed] in the world before the Law [was given], but sin is not charged [against anyone] when there is no law [against it]. Yet death ruled [over mankind] from Adam to Moses [the Lawgiver], even over those who had not sinned as Adam did. Adam is a type of Him (Christ) who was to come [but in reverse—Adam brought destruction; Christ brought salvation] (Romans 5:12-14). God has given every man, whosoever will, a second chance at life. One only needs to receive God's FREE gift of eternal life through faith in His Son Jesus the Christ and His finished work on the Cross. God is still calling answer the call.
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow. Put it all in His hands. Have a blessed stress-free worry-free day on purpose and never stop believing Jesus paid it all.
