For Jonathan's Sake

Summary

The sermon explores the biblical story of David's kindness to Mephibosheth, Jonathan's lame son, illustrating how God blesses and shows mercy to sinners for the sake of others, particularly Christ. It emphasizes that believers are spiritually lame and unable to come to God on their own, but are drawn by His grace from a place of nothingness. The preacher draws parallels between Mephibosheth's restoration and the salvation and adoption of sinners into God's family, highlighting the covering of faults by God's grace. The message encourages believers to recognize their unworthiness and the kindness of God extended to them through Jesus Christ.
