Christ died for the ungodly
"For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly" (Romans 5:6 KJV). We were hopeless, helpless, and powerless to help ourselves, and Christ Jesus knew we needed something more. That more we needed come through His death at Calvary. His blood, the new covenant, brought the sinner like you and I near to God the Father. Oh what love the Lord has for us all. Even while we were dead in our sin, He died for us. This world might be flooded with ungodliness and wickedness, but Jesus came to die for the sinner. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (vs.8). God so loved this world that He gave us His Son, who came to redeem and make us clean from the worldly contaminations. There is no sinner that Christ will reject. It is the sinner who rejects Him. There is no sin He will not forgive. We just have to confess it and let it go. Jesus came to restore us and bring us into the greatest life ever, not just here on the earth, but in His Heavenly presence. Who could neglect such love? How blessed are the children of God. God bless you. Amen
