God DOES love us as we are. That's why Christ died for us while we were yet sinners. What folks need to realize is there is a horrific future for those who remain in sin without the One God sent for our deliverance from sin.

The three phases of salvation / deliverance from sin are Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification. ONLY God can do the first aqnd the last, but he calls us to get to work in the Sanctification phase, because there is no failure in that phase that can undo what God did in the Justiciation phase.

Totally agree brother.
A lot of folks confuse Sanctification with Justification.

Christ died almost 2,000 years before I was born.

His work was finished before I was born.

I just have to accept it, embrace it, and believe it.

Legalists love self-flagellation. We’re called to be Victorious in Christ. I’m convinced 95% of Christians don’t even know what that means or even attempt to live their lives that way.
