Who did Christ die for according to the Bible?

Answered in 4 sources

According to the Bible, Christ died for the ungodly, specifically those who recognize their sinfulness.

Scripture clearly indicates that Christ died not for the righteous or the self-righteous, but for the ungodly. Romans 5:6 explicitly states, 'Christ died for the ungodly,' highlighting that His sacrifice was intended for those who are unworthy and recognize their spiritual need. Jesus himself stated in Mark 2:17, 'I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.' This underscores the Gospel truth that salvation is available for all who acknowledge their need for redemption, offering hope to those who feel undeserving of grace.
