Grace To You...

Three things that we have learned about God's grace this week...

1.) God's grace is free... but it is not cheap.
Cheap grace, according to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, was tantamount to a "007" Licence to keep on sinning. Costly grace, on the other hand, is the realization that God sent HIS son into the world, not to condemn the world... but that through him the world might be saved! Costly grace means nothing less than the fact that somebody died so that you and I could live...

2.) God's grace is unmerited... and undeserved.
Paul writes that it is by grace that we are saved, through faith... not of works, lest any man should boast. In this we can realize that God alone is the author and finisher of our faith, and that it is only because he loves us that we are alive to this day...

3.) God's grace is for you...
Truthfully, there is only one person who Jesus died for... YOU.

Nuff' said...

I bid you peace!
