What is GRACE?

🌺 What is GRACE?

Jesus is The Amazing Grace,

👉Grace means to get something that you do not deserve; unmerited favor.

 👉Mercy means you do not get a punishment that you deserve; compassion, forbearance. 

GOD is abundant in grace and mercy and we can read about it in the Bible. 

HIS greatest act of grace is the gift of salvation that is available for all people through faith (Eph 2:8-9).  

When the gift is accepted, eternal life is promised to the recipient. 

This eternal life is a promise of a home one day in heaven with GOD. 

The promise to the believer is sealed with the Holy Spirit as a guarantee that one day Jesus the Christ will return to earth to claim HIS purchased possession 

(Eph 1:12-14; 4:30). 

Jesus purchased every sinner with HIS own blood on the cross at Calvary.

Jeremiah 31:2-3 

Thus says the LORD: ”The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness; when Israel sought for rest, the LORD appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued My faithfulness to you.

2 Corinthians 12:8-9 

Three times I pleaded with the LORD about this, that it should leave me. But HE said to me, “MY grace is sufficient for you, for MY power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

🌺 Remember  

Grace is Gift Eternal

Romans 3:20-24 

For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it — the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus

Romans 4:15-17 

For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression. That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his offspring—not only to the adherent of the law but also to the one who shares the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all, as it is written, “I have made you the father of many nations”— in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

Romans 5:1-2 

Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God

Amen.
