Easter is Coming

I saw this over at Biblical Christianity. He asked what Bible verse was standing out in our minds as we consider Good Friday and Christ's work on the cross.

Romans 5:6
"For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly."

Do you see it all? We had no way to help ourselves and there was nothing we could offer. We did not deserve life and we did not deserve Christ. Further, we didn't need to become good on our own first. Christ died for the ungodly. God's perfect gift in God's perfect timing.
