A Vital Snapshot of Grace
'Grace' appears 118 times in the New Testament, and is supported by another ten times in the Old Testament. It is a vital theme to be grasped, simply by its sheer presence.
However grace is hard to see, it is especially difficult for the proud. They have no radar for it. BUT, the sinner knows otherwise. He seeks grace to both receive it, and pass it on.
Grace is always efficient and sufficient. (2 Corinthians 12:9)
Grace destroys the barrier of hostility between God and man. (Ephesians 2:14-16)
Grace is a dependable gift, but it is not to be tested. It's time for acceptance is finite. (Romans 6:1-2)
Grace is the substance, the very fabric of eternal well-being, but it is not to be wasted or received in vain. (2 Corinthians 6:1)
Grace is your ticket to heaven, but it is pocketed through obedience. (Romans 6:15-18)
Grace is the Father's expression of His kindness to us in Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2:7)
Grace introduces us to the Father, but access is only through Jesus by one Spirit. (Ephesians 2:18)
The Lord may not give gold, but He will give grace; He may not give gain, but He will give grace. ~ Charles Spurgeon
