When we sinned we became hostages of satan, God gave His only begotten son for us. There was no benefit for God other than demonstrating His grace in saving us. We were helpless. "He died not for our sins only, but for the sins of the whole world." CHRIST DID NOT DIE JUST FOR THE SO CALLED GOOD PEOPLE, OR THOSE WHO THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS. CHRIST DIED FOR ALL PEOPLE, THAT'S RIGHT, ALL PEOPLE, SO THAT ALL PEOPLE COULD CHOOSE TO ACCEPT HIS GRACE OR NOT. So stop telling people that God is out to judge and condemn them. Stop thinking you are better, because you live so holy, sure it is good to obey God, but Christ's sacrifice is still just as strong for the sinful people you despise, as it is for your goody two shoe friends. It's all about Christ and His sacrifice, not you and your service. We have to applaud Christ and His sacrifice on our behalf, not our efforts to serve Him.When we put God first, and not put ourselves above others, then they will hear agree?
