"God's Gracious Choice"


“God’s Gracious Choice”

 

In the same way then, there has also come to be at the present time a remnant according to God’s gracious choice.  But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is no longer grace.      Romans 11:5-6

 

What is GRACE?  GRACE is UNMERITED FAVOR, FAVOR with the Almighty God, which we have not earned by our own abilities.  It is His gift of UNMERITED SALVATION through the Lord Jesus Christ.  God’s acceptance of us is not given by EARNING it, but coming to Him by FAITH, and ACCEPTING His UNMERITED gift of SALVATION through the Lord Jesus Christ’s atoning work on the cross.

 

The Apostle Paul states in his letter to the Ephesians, in chapter two, verses eight and nine, that it is by GRACE that we are SAVED, through FAITH; and NOT of ourselves, it is the GIFT of God; not as a result of WORKS, so that NO ONE may boast.   In other words, you CANNOT earn your way into Heaven.  You MUST come by FAITH in the ONLY ONE, who is ABLE to give you that UNMERITED FAVOR, known as GRACE.  The One, who was CHOSEN by God to prepare the way for others to find UNMERITED FAVOR with Him, that being the Lord Jesus Christ, and Him ALONE.  It is through God’s Only Begotten Son that God’s GRACE is brought to mankind.

 

GRACE is SALVATION, and ETERNAL LIFE in Heaven with the Father and the Son.   God’s AMAZING GRACE is open to ALL people, but to be able to experience God’s MARVELOUS GRACE is conditional upon the response of the people.  They have the CHOICE of either ACCEPTING or REJECTING His UNMERITED GRACE.  And that AMAZING, MARVELOUS, UNMERITED GRACE, abides in the Heart of EVERY TRUE BELIEVER.  All those who have experienced God’s UNMERITED GRACE have been given gifts of that GRACE for ministry.  God’s GRACE is the FULLEST source of JOY to the TRUE BELIEVER.

 

If you have not given your HEART and LIFE to God, through FAITH in Him, you are NOT experiencing nor have you ever experienced His UNMERITED, AMAZING, MARVELOUS GRACE, and you do NOT POSSESS His gift of UNMERITED SALVATION, no matter how much you may PROFESS it.  It is a GIFT from Almighty God, and you cannot EARN it.  You MUST come to Him through FAITH and with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESSING your sins to Him, asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of UNMERITED SALVATION, and experience His AMAZING GRACE and the source of JOY that it brings to EVERY TRUE BELIEVER.  Come to Him NOW, while you still can He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
