A glorious grace of God



Pastor Eduardo Alves was in Lord's Super service with blessed people of Ministerios Adoracion church:

A glorious grace of God

we have received the grace of God through Jesus Christ, in fact, we see how wonderful and incomparable is this grace. However, what is the meaning of the expression of God's grace?
1Corinthians 15:10 "But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me has not been in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them - yet not I, but the grace of God with me. "
 Definition of the Grace of God - How theologians defined?
"What is grace? By the grace of the New Testament means God's love in action towards men who deserve the opposite of love. Grace means God moving heaven and earth to save sinners who could not lift a finger to save himself. Grace means God sending his only son to descend into hell on the cross for us, the culprits can be reconciled with God and received into heaven. "(God) has made it sin for us, that knew no sin, that we might become the righteousness of God in him "(2 Corinthians 5:21) .1
"Grace can be defined as unmerited favor or undeserving of God to those who are under
condemnation." - Enns2

Definition of the Grace of God - What does the Bible say? "This
righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus "(Romans 3: 22-24).
The Declaration of the Grace of God Throughout the Bible, God's grace manifested in three stages. In the first, God revealed His goodness and grace to show mercy
and love for all men in general, but particularly in Israel. In the second stage, God expressed or presented his grace, clarity, through Jesus Christ, who came into the world to pay for the sins of mankind through His sacrificial death on the cross. In the third, the grace of God offers salvation and sanctification of all who, by faith, trust in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of their lives. "In him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace" (Ephesians 1: 7).
 Saving grace
The word salvation is a broad term. It refers to the redemptive act of God by which, at present, redeems the penalty and power of individual sin, and in the future, frees the believer in Christ the presence of sin at the time of the exaltation of the saved. Salvation is a free gift of God, given to a person under grace, by faith, irrespective of any work or merit of the person who receives it. At the time of salvation, the unmerited grace and faith of the believer are gifts that come directly from the Lord to those who put their faith in Christ (Eph 2.8-9).
"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the
gift of God. Not of works, lest anyone should boast For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared in advance to do "(Ephesians 2: 8-10).
