“Living Under God’s Grace”

 “Living Under God’s Grace”

 

For the Grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people.   Titus 2:11

 

Remember that GRACE is: Getting what we DON’T deserve, JESUS CHRIST, the incarnate GRACE of the LIVING GOD.  God’s GRACIOUS GIFT to FALLEN MANKIND who is the SUPREME SACRIFICE that was SUFFICIENT enough to COVER EVERY SIN of EVERY one who BELIEVES.  “For God LOVED the world so MUCH that He gave His ONE and ONLY Son, so that EVERYONE who BELIEVES in Him will NOT perish but will have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.”  (John 3:16).  For there is ONLY ONE GOD and ONE MEDIATOR who can RECONCILE God and humanity—the Man CHRIST JESUS.  (1 Timothy 2:5).  

 

When we receive this GRACIOUS GIFT of God, we are to LIVE UNDER God’s GRACIOUS GIFT, which comes with GREATER RESPONSIBILITY. We have three aspects of LIVING UNDER GOD’S GRACE:  First is: RECEIVING GOD’S GIFT of SALVATION (v 11), Second is:  INSTRUCTIONS or DISCIPLINE, we are DISCIPLINED by GOD’S GRACE.  Those who understand the will of  God’s Grace, will NOT want to LIVE in SIN. They will be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM their OLD SINFUL LIFE-STYLE and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. (V12)  There is NOTHING that is MORE ENCOURAGING for the TRUE BELIEVER, to LIVE a CHRISTIAN LIFE in this present world, then LOOKING FORWARD, with HOPE to the SECOND COMING of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. (V 13)  When Christ returns we shall see His GLORY, and will SHARE His GLORY.  For God wanted us to KNOW that the RICHES and GLORY of CHRIST are for the GENTILES, (those who are not Jews) too.  And this is the SECRET;  Christ LIVES in you, the TRUE BELIEVER.  This gives you, the TRUE BELIEVER, the ASSURANCE of SHARING His GLORY.  (Col. 1:27). Do YOU have that ASSURANCE?

 

If your answer is NO, or if you don’t KNOW, you can CHANGE your answer and ETERNAL DESTINY, from an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there, to;  an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, by:  ADMITTING that YOU are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, who GAVE His LIFE for YOUR SALVATION.  Then you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS GAVE His LIFE for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFE-STYLE and TURN TO GOD, and start LIVING UNDER GOD’S GRACE.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION, through His ONE and ONLY Son, JESUS CHRIST, and START LOOKING for His RETURN.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!
