What is always greater when sin abounds?

Les explains that the whole comprehension of Paul's gospel is that God has poured out His grace not just upon America, not just upon Israel, but the whole world. That becomes our responsibility: to let the world know that the grace of God reaches to the vilest person. Going back to what was taught a few programs earlier, Les asks, when sin abounds, what is always greater? The grace of God. He then shares an account of Dwight L. Moody, who preached a tremendous sermon in Chicago on the grace of God. After the audience cleared out, one poor old reprobate sat on the back row weeping. Moody asked what was the matter, and the man said, 'Don't tell me the grace of God can help me.' Moody said, 'Oh, yes, it can. Why don't you think it can?' The man replied, 'You don't know what I've been.' He had been a recruiter for the prostitution trade of Chicago, and because of him countless beautiful young girls had ended up drug addicts, alcoholics, murdered, or having committed suicide. He asked, 'You tell me God will still save me?' Moody said, 'That's the grace of God.' Les says that is probably as good an example as he can find other than Paul himself, that the grace of God can go far beyond the most vile sinner we can dream of. It is incomprehensible, almost unbelievable if it weren't that the word so clearly declares it. You are not under the law, you're under grace. As the program winds down, Les repeats: we're not under the law, we're under grace.
