It’s just what it is- Grace! 3
“Adam disobeyed God and caused many others to become sinners. But Jesus obeyed Him and will make many people acceptable to God.” Romans 5:19
Grace turned the flaw to flawless, turned the curse into a blessing, and gives hope to the hopeless. The power of grace to turn the weakness into a strength is astounding. Grace came into the world to restore, refresh, and to bring life out from the dead.
However, grace does not come without its own cost, and that cost is to believe in Jesus Christ. John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever believed in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Through believing in Christ Jesus, our salvation is assured, and the Grace of God abounds more. Grace is the gift of God, which we are given by faith alone in Christ Jesus.
Titus 2:11 says, “For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people.” This grace instructed us how to conquer sin, to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible, upright, and godly lives in the present age as we wait on God’s blessing. That’s why the grace through Jesus is essential, because, through Him, our relationship with God has transformed from the flesh to righteousness’s life.
Jesus Christ is the grace of God that transformed our desires from lost to love; he transformed our behavior from sin deserving death to eternal life. He was the redeemer of our souls, the redeemer of our lives from the den of thieves into abundant life. The grace of God is the reason for our salvation. Ephesians 2:8 says, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.”
