Summary In this sermon, Dr. Michael Easley teaches from Romans 5:6–8, reminding us that God has already proved His love in the most powerful way possible: through Christ’s death for sinners. Our experiences—pain, betrayal, loss, injustice—often whisper the lie that God does not love us. Yet Scripture tells us the opposite. Paul writes that while we were helpless, ungodly, and even enemies of God, Christ died for us. Dr. Easley contrasts God’s sacrificial love with human love, pointing out that while some may be willing to die for a good person, Christ died for the undeserving. This is love beyond comparison, a demonstration that cannot be undone by our circumstances or doubts. Dr. Easley reminds us that the cross is not only about physical suffering but about substitution—Jesus taking the full weight of God’s wrath in our place. The cross declares: “God loves you.” Regardless of how you feel or what you’ve endured, this truth stands firm. The only way to truly know God’s love is through trusting Christ—believing He lived, died, and rose again for you. Once for all, God has proved His love. Takeaways Our experiences often make us question God’s love, but Scripture assures us otherwise. Romans 5:6–8 shows that Christ died for us when we were helpless, ungodly, and sinful. Human love, even at its best, cannot compare to the sacrificial love of God. The cross demonstrates God’s love once for all, proving it beyond doubt. Jesus bore the wrath of God in our place—substitutionary atonement for sinners. The only way to know God’s love is by trusting Christ for salvation. To read the book of Romans, click here.
