What does it mean to be a sinner saved by grace?

Answered in 4 sources

To be a sinner saved by grace means that salvation is a gift from God, not based on our merit but rather God's unmerited favor towards us through Christ.

The phrase 'sinner saved by grace' encapsulates the essence of the gospel: that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). This emphasizes the unmerited nature of salvation, illustrating that we cannot earn or deserve grace; it is given freely by God. The confession of one's sinfulness and the reception of God's grace leads to true redemption. As believers, we find identity in our relationship with Christ, who is our righteousness. This acknowledgement of grace should humble us and inspire a life of gratitude and service, knowing that our standing before God is purely based on His grace, not our works.
