#157: The part of the gospel we don’t hear enough about

Grace In Real Life podcast

You are loved by God. Yes, you are a sinner, AND God saved you because He loved you first. ​​​​​​​​Sinning is a part of your story, but that’s not the only true truth about you.

If you grew up with the drumbeat of messaging that reminded you of how sinful, unworthy, unrighteous, deceitful you were– which is certainly biblical but not the only or even most important part of your salvation story – please remember these truths.

Yes, you are a sinner, AND God saved you because He loved you first. ​​​​​​​​

Sin is a big deal: it brings death to our souls, suffering, hurt, and destruction. It is so costly Jesus died to save us from it.

You were born into sin. Before you knew Jesus, you were a slave to sin. Once you became a follower of Christ, you were no longer a sinner but a saint.

Sinning is a part of your story, but that’s not the only true truth about you.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn how you are loved by God:

• What this means for you
• And how the gospel of grace balances our sinfulness with God’s love.
