Read: Romans 5:1-11

⁸ But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

This is the good news that many religious people either do not get or simply  ignore. Why do I say that? Well, most professing Christians I met think that by doing good they can make themselves acceptable to God and make it to heaven. But how can sinners make themselves acceptable to God? They cannot!But God does what we cannot do–save us from sin through Christ’s death. And all we need to do is to embrace God’s love and  receive the gift of salvation by believing in Christ as Savior. And since Christ is also Lord, we are to follow him with a single-minded devotion. Then we become saints.

Sinners who embrace God’s love become saints.
