1. Christ died for the ungodly (6-8)

No human being is worthy of God's love, nor of Christ's sacrifice. I was ungodly, powerless, and sinful. But he loved me with one-sided love. I can never doubt God's love for me, for he demonstrated that love when he sent Christ to die for me, a worthless sinner. Some people forget this amazing love of God and blame God for all their problems. This is foolish. When we experience hard things in life, it is the very time to learn the depth of God's love.

2. Saved through his life (9-11)

The day of God's judgment will surely come. However, we do not need to be afraid. If God loved and saved us through the death of Jesus when we were his enemies, we can be very sure that he will save us and give us eternal life on the day of judgment. Jesus died in my place to reconcile me to God. By faith, I can glorify God and enjoy him forever.

Application: Lord, thank you for the blood of Jesus, which saved me when I was helpless and powerless and was living as your enemy.
One Word: God demonstrated his love
