How does God receive sinners?

Answered in 1 source

God receives sinners through faith in Christ, offering forgiveness, redemption, and transformation.

Scripture teaches that God actively seeks and receives sinners, as exemplified in the parables of Luke 15. In these stories, Jesus illustrates how the Father rejoices over a sinner who repents and returns to Him. For instance, in the parable of the lost son, we see the father running to embrace his wayward child, symbolizing God's eagerness to forgive and restore those who turn to Him. Romans 10:13 affirms that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved, revealing the open invitation for all sinners to come to Him. This grace-infused concept assures us that no matter how far we may stray, God's love and mercy are greater, and His arms are always open wide for us to return.
