You say you are unworthy of the least of God’s mercies.
Aren’t you glad Christ is worthy and that the redemption He accomplished was for the unworthy?
You say you have no goodness or merits to claim.
Aren’t you thankful God accepts sinners based upon the goodness and merits of His Son?
You say the law affords you no hope.
Right you are, but the gospel declares that the mercy and grace of God is freely given to sinners because of the doing and the dying of His dear Son! This is the only salvation worth having and the only one worthy to be proclaimed.
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

Every time you insist that I am a sinner, you call me to remember the benefit of Christ my Redeemer, upon whose shoulders, and not mine, lie all my sins. So when you say I am a sinner, you do not terrify me, but comfort me immeasurably.

“But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:” | Ephesians 2: 4-8

“I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.” | Hosea 14: 4
We ARE nothing, we HAVE nothing, and we can DO nothing that would cause God to love us. If God loves me, it will have to be FREELY.
One might ask,
“You love Jesus don’t you?”
“Your love for God counts for something doesn’t it?”
“Your love for Christ must prove something?”
Yes it does!
It proves that,
“He first loved me.”
“I love Him because He first loved me.” (1 John 4: 19)
“If God ever loved me, he loved me FREELY.”
If He ever loved me FREELY, He still loves me FREELY for His free love is eternal, without beginning and without end.
What comfort that is to this sinner who still is nothing, still has nothing, and still can do nothing that would enable me to barter and bargain with God.
Truly, if God would ever love us, it would have to be freely.

“But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To HIM be glory both now and for ever. Amen.” | 2 Peter 3: 18
The apostle’s exhortation to us as God’s people who have been called by faith to believe on Christ is, “grow in grace.” When God‘s people “grow in grace,” they grow in the doctrine of grace. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2: 8-9) They grow in the object of grace – which is Christ Himself! “Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.” (2 Timothy 1: 9) “Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” (2 Timothy 2: 1) And when God‘s people “grow in grace,” they grow in the practice of grace.
Psalm 111: 4 says, “…the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.” And all who “grow in grace” say, “As He is, I desire to be.” True growth in grace says with David, “I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with THY likeness.” (Psalm 17:15)
The doctrine! The object! The practice!
“Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To HIM be glory both now and for ever. Amen. (2 Peter 3: 17,18)

To make a thorough study of all that is wrong with man, all of the specific consequences of the fall, would be a considerable undertaking requiring great time and effort. Yet we know that unless the Lord opened our hearts and understanding to His truth, we would yet be entirely ignorant on the subject. But if God is pleased to just show us Christ crucified, one glimpse of the Son of God at Calvary, will make us to know what we are. The horror of what we are. And that same glimpse, of that same One, will reveal how God made right all that is wrong.
For the elect of God, all that we are and all that He is, is revealed at the cross. Our condemnation, and our sure hope, in one look. We preach Christ crucified.

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” | John 1: 14
My friends, if you will carefully consider it, this is the most extraordinary fact ever declared in human language. God became a man and “took upon him the likeness of sinful flesh.” The Ancient of Days became an infant of days. The Son of the Most-High God became a man of sorrows. He made the world; but as a man, “he had no place to lay his head.” He who made the rivers asked a woman to give him a drink of water. He who cast out devils was tempted of the devil, and the author of life died and lay in a tomb.
“The sun that hid from Him its face
By His own hand was hung in space;
The sky which darkened o’er His head
By Him above the world was spread;
The spear that shed His precious blood
Was tempered in the fires of God;
The grave in which His form was laid
Was hewn in rocks His hand had made.”

They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. | Matthew 9: 12
Who are these that have no need? They are those who are said to be whole. Many times in the scriptures the word “whole” is used to show the believer’s completeness and perfect soundness in the Lord Jesus Christ. But here in Matthew chapter 9, verse 12, the word “whole” means, “to be able, or one who can do.”
Who are they that have “no need?”
Who are these that are said to be whole?
They are those that “are able” and “can do” something for themselves.
Those that be whole (or think themselves to be) need not a physician.
Who are these that have great need? They are those that are sick.
Like the man at the pool of Bethesda, we are lame and cannot walk. Like the poor woman who was bowed over, we can in no wise lift ourselves up. Like the unclean leper, sin is eating us away. Like the man with the withered hand, we cannot pick ourselves up by the bootstraps. Like the demoniac, we lived among the tombs of the dead. Like Lazarus, we were dead. If I had a terminal disease that only one doctor had the cure for, I would give anything and everything to find and receive treatment from that specialist.
Dear reader, we have such a disease and it is called “sin.”
There is such a Great Physician and He found me.
His name is Jesus Christ and only He can save His people from their sin. (Matthew 1: 21)
When do we go to the doctor?
When we are sick.
May God be pleased to continue to show us our sickness and need of Christ, the Great Physician.
