God Seeking Man
Romans 5:6-8 "You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
What do these verses tell us about the character of God, and why are they so full of hope for us?
When Adam and Eve shamefully and inexcusably transgressed the divine requirement, God took the first steps toward reconciliation. Ever since, God has taken the initiative in providing a way of salvation and in inviting men and women to accept it. 'When the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son' (Gal. 4:4). Romans 5:9 says that we can be saved from God
