How can we describe the Grace of God? It encompasses two qualities – love and mercy – merged into one. Mercy is negative, and love is positive – combined, they equal Grace. To express love in mercy – is grace. When God sent His Son to bear our sins in His own body on the cross – He showed love in mercy. That is Grace.
GRACE IS THE LOVE AND MERCY OF GOD IN ACTION
- The grace of God saves eternally. You can not be “unborn.” Rom. 8:38,39 – 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come. 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
- The grace of God is unconditional. We do not need to “hold on till the end, “fail not,” or “do our best.” We are saved by the grace of God – not works.
- The grace of God is completely sufficient. 2 Cor. 12:9 – And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
- The grace of God does not discriminate. Rev. 22:17 – And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
- The grace of God justifies us. Rom. 3:23,24 – For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. . .
- The grace of God makes every believer an heir. Titus 3:7 – That being justified by His grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
- The grace of God teaches us how to live. Titus 3:11,12 – For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world. . .
God’s grace is nothing less than His unlimited love towards undeserving sinners, expressed in the gift of His Son, our blessed Savior.
