What Does God Want

"God loves you so much He gave the heart of His own Son for you. The reason He did it was grace.

"You will never understand the Bible unless you understand it is a story of grace. Grace is simply God giving to us what we do not deserve. God created this world but He didn't have to. God created you but He didn't have to. God sent His son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins, but He did not have to. God offers every person an opportunity to receive eternal life and go to heaven, but He doesn't have to. It's all about grace.

"The passage we are going to study today tells us what God really wants from all of us. Paul was on a journey taking up an offering for the needy saints in Jerusalem, and he was asking the church at Corinth to contribute. But what Paul was trying to explain to the church at Corinth really was grace, and he used a group of Christians at a place called Macedonia to illustrate what God really wants."
