How does God's movement towards sinners illustrate His grace?

The sermon illustrates that God's movement is pivotal in the story of salvation, reflecting His profound grace. Romans 5:8 tells us that 'God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.' God's actions are not based on our worth but on His mercy. In John 17, Jesus indicates that God the Father has given certain individuals to Him, highlighting divine election and intercession. This movement represents God's loving initiative in reaching out to those who are spiritually dead and void, inviting them into relationship with Himself through Christ—underscoring the unconditional aspect of His grace.
