Romans 5.8 says: "But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us." And then in verse 10 it says: "For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more surely, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life." We were enemies of God---and God died for us. What a paradox. And that is God's radical grace.

Christ Died for us
Romans 5.8 says: "But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us." And then in verse 10 it says: "For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more surely, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life." We were enemies of God---and God died for us. What a paradox. And that is God's radical grace.
