GOD's GRACE - We are saved only because of God's grace.
Romans 6:12-18, 23
“Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be! Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness? But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed, and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
God’s grace is for everyone. The way to receive God’s grace is through repentance and obedience. Contrary to what some people believe, this is not a legalistic view on salvation. God’s grace is not cheap, but it is offered to everyone, even though many do not accept this wonderful gift. Jesus Christ took upon Himself all your sins and died on the cross for you. He accepted the punishment of death which was meant for you. God did this purely out of His love for us, so that we may have eternal life and fellowship with Him.
God’s grace is free to all. You just have to take it. It is a matter of the heart (repentance and obedience) to be able to accept God’s grace.
If you love the Lord, Jesus Christ, and accept Him as your Lord and Savior, give your life to Him in obedience. Repent and ask for forgiveness of your sins and His grace will be poured out on you!
