Grace is freely offered to sinners, evidenced by God's merciful interventions throughout Scripture, especially in the lives of flawed individuals.
The sermon illustrates how God's grace is offered even to the most sinful. The story of Samson's birth in Judges 13 showcases God's mercy, as He delivers Israel without them even asking for it. This act of grace reveals God's character as merciful and loving towards His people, despite their failures. Ephesians 2:8-9 reinforces this idea, stating that we are saved by grace through faith, indicating that salvation is a gift from God rather than something we can earn. This assurance points to the core belief in sovereign grace theology that God actively provides for the redemption of sinners.
