ROMANS 5:8 says, “But God commanded His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” This means that a worshipper will always extend grace to those around them bearing a perfect example of Jesus Christ. For instance, He welcomed the little children rather than chasing them away, He was able to nurture the disciples to better people from their weaknesses, He was hurt by the loss of Judas Iscariot, He was able to save the life of a woman caught in adultery, He knew many people’s secrets but chose to keep them to himself, He loved public sinners (harlots, prostitutes, tax collectors) at the point where many could not. 9. Humility is a Life of every Worshipper. EXODUS 33:20 says, “No man shall see God (His face) and live”. In other words humility is the one defining mark for everyone who has seen God’s face. MATTHEW 21:44 says this of those who encounter God, that they are broken to pieces, or crushed to powder. Jesus lays down a great pattern on humility right from His birth to His death, for instance, PHILIPPIANS 2:5-8 says, “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, Who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery
