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).
