Verse 6 and following of Romans 5: “For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.” That is an incredibly amazing statement: “Christ died for the ungodly.” Verse 10: “While we were enemies we were reconciled to God.” Christ died for the ungodly. We were reconciled to God while we were enemies. And then verse 8 says it: “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Therein lies the uniqueness of the gospel. Uniqueness of the gospel is this: salvation is offered, and salvation is possible only for the ungodly, and only for sinners, and only for enemies. It’s a stunning statement that Christ died for the ungodly.
