How do we know that God's grace is offered to sinners?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace is evident in the parable of the prodigal son, where the father freely welcomes back the repentant sinner.

In the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32), we see God’s character displayed as one who rejoices over the repentance of sinners. The father, representing God, runs to his wayward son, embraces him, and throws a feast in his honor upon his return. This act illustrates not only forgiveness but abundant grace. The contrast with the elder brother serves to highlight that grace is not dependent on our works or perceived righteousness. The elder brother, despite his obedience, lacks the joy and love that reflect true acceptance of the father’s grace. This powerful illustration reassures believers that God's grace is available to everyone, regardless of their past.
