GOD'S LOVE WAS COMMENDED AT THE CROSSGOD'S LOVE WAS COMMENDED AT THE CROSS

(Romans 5:8)  But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

 

I have visited a lot of people in my ministry who would say that they hoped to get saved some day. It seems that some think that they have to somehow clean themselves up a little before God will have mercy on them.

 

The problem is that we can't clean ourselves up. Our righteousness is as filthy rags in the sight of God and there is nothing that we can do to clean us up.  The only thing that can make us right with God is Jesus.

 

1John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.

 

The only thing that can clean up the sin from a sinners life is Jesus and the fact that He died for our sins and shed His blood for us.
