It is because of God’s goodness that he saves sinners.
Regardless of cultural/religious background, the idea of unmerited salvation was a new concept.
The more you study the nature and character of God from the scriptures the picture just keeps getting clearer- God is infinitely good and his love is like no other.
We are helpless and fully deserving of God’s wrath, but still God has not abandoned us in our guilt.
Always be amazed at God’s great love.
The “sticking point” for so many believing in God’s salvation is the “unmerited” part man brings.
Father, thank you for your great love. Help me depend on it like oxygen.
