Jesus saves. And he saves sinners. He rescues failures and reprobates as well as high achievers and saintly souls. Saving is his work, not ours.
A lot of voices out there put a particular spin on the message of Jesus. Many unnecessarily complicate things. Some of them want to sound smarter than everyone else. Some want to believe they have discovered a secret. Many who are out there talking about God and salvation are simply confused.
This particular explanation of the good news of Jesus could be just another one of those. I could be selling snake oil. The proof is not in some credentials I may claim to have. I’m not asking you to believe I have greater insight than other people. I’m not offering secret information.
