Matthew 1:18-25; 1 Timothy 1:12-17 He Came to Save Sinners
I. Christ Jesus came into the World
o Into the world (Jn. 3:19; 12:46)
o Christ—anointed One, Messiah
o Jesus—the LORD saves (Mt. 1:21
II. Sinners He came to Save
o To save (Mt. 1:21)
o Sinners He came to save (1 Tim. 1:8-14)
To save sinners. The word sinners is emphatic; for they who acknowledge that it is the office of Christ to save, have difficulty in admitting this thought, that such a salvation belongs to 'sinners.' Our mind is always impelled to look at our worthiness; and as soon as our unworthiness is seen, our confidence sinks. Accordingly, the more anyone is oppressed by his sins, let him the more courageously betake himself to Christ, relying on this doctrine, that he came to bring salvation not to the righteous, but to sinners.—John Calvin
