“The Grace of God—Jesus Christ”

 “ The Grace of God—Jesus Christ”

 

For the Grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people.  And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures.  We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God.     Titus 2:11-12

 

The Grace of God is not only the attribute of God, but it is Jesus Christ, Himself.  He is the ULTIMATE SACRIFICE, and God’s GRACIOUS GIFT to SINFUL MANKIND.  Jesus Christ is the ONLY HOPE for FALLEN mankind.  He is the ONLY ACCEPTABLE SACRIFICE that is  ABLE to COVER EVERY SIN of EVERY person who BELIEVES.  The phrase; “to all people” actually refers to ALL WHO BELIEVE.  They are the ONLY ONES who will be able to experience God’s GRACIOUS GIFT of SALVATION.  And they MUST COME by way of the LORD JESUS CHRIST, Who suffered and died, and was RAISED to LIFE in order to SECURE SALVATION for those who have COME to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.

 

We are instructed to TURN AWAY FROM GODLESS LIVING and SINFUL PLEASURES.  When you come to JESUS for SALVATION, you are TRANSFORMED into a NEW person, with a NEW LIFESTYLE.  And you are EXPECTED to LIVE in this EVIL world with WISDOM, RIGHTEOUSNESS, and to be DEVOTED to GOD.  You are ABLE to do this because Jesus Christ lives in you through the HOLY SPIRIT of the LIVING GOD.  The HOLY SPIRIT will give you WISDOM, and you have the RIGHTEOUSNESS of JESUS in you, which will give you a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD.   This is POSSIBLE because of GOD’S GRACE—the LORD JESUS CHRIST.

 

In order to possess the GRACE of GOD, and to SECURE your SALVATION, you MUST ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, God’s ONLY SON, who GAVE His Life to SAVE your SINFUL SOUL.  And you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died 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.  Then you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFESTYLE, and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and POSSESS The GRACE of GOD—JESUS CHRIST.  If you have NOT DONE this DO it NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!
