Why Jesus Came, Part 1 (1 Tim. 1:12-15)

Summary

Elder John Morgan Owens teaches that Jesus came to save sinners, not the righteous, emphasizing God's grace and mercy toward the broken and outcast. Using biblical examples such as Levi (Matthew), the lost sheep, the lost coin, the prodigal son, and Zacchaeus, the sermon highlights Jesus' mission to seek and save the lost, rejoicing over one sinner who repents. The message encourages self-reflection on personal sinfulness and the need for repentance, assuring that Jesus actively pursues and saves those who recognize their need for Him.
