Saved By Grace, Boundless Love

Thanks be to God for His great love and mercy, His amazing grace! He gave us a Deliverer to save us from our sins and the penalty thereof, through the sacrificial offering of His Son, as the perfect Lamb of God. 

How deep and wide is His love for humanity, whom He created in His image and after His likeness. Such love cannot be measured; it's boundless and free. If you don't know Him, His arms are open wide. Come as you are.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." (John 3:16-17)

"In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace." (Ephesians 1:7)

"But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2:4-10)

"For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." (2 Corinthians 5:21)

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus." (Romans 3:23-24)

Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost! Amen.

God's Manifold Grace Abounds

We are saved by grace, kept by grace. God's grace is sufficient for every task and every need. There is no short supply for the humble in His sight. "He giveth more grace." (James 4:6)
The apostle Paul considered himself chief of sinners (1 Timothy 1:15), and set himself forth as an example of the grace of God. He stated: "For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me." (1 Corinthians 15:9 & 10)

Let's come boldly to the throne of grace. Thank You merciful God for Your manifold grace which abounds and flows into our lives by the power of the Holy Spirit, so that we may be who You would have us to be, and do what You would have us to do, to the glory of Your name. Amen.
