November 18th - The Gospel of Grace

 "....there is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall 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)

"You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly....While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him!" (Romans 5:6-8)

Here is my summary of the GOSPEL OF GRACE:
Sin condemned humanity to DEATH. However, the love and grace of God will save sinners out of death, in other words, no human will STAY DEAD forever. All humans will be resurrected out of death and transformed into a new creation which will not and cannot sin or die.

"For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son..." (Romans 8:29)

"For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive...The last enemy that will be abolished is death...Just as we have borne the image of the earthy, we will also bear the image of the heavenly." (1 Corinthians 15:22, 26, 49)

"Thus also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is roused in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor; it is roused in glory. It is sown in infirmity; it is roused in power. It is sown a soulish body; it is roused a spiritual body..." (1 Corinthians 15:42-44)

"And we...are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." (2 Corinthians 3:18)

"...our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body." (Philippians 3:20-21)
The gospel of GRACE is meant to be so simple a child could understand, and so profound that a genius stands in awe of its simplicity and beauty. Unfortunately, the religions of humanity are...

"... ever learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth" (2 Timothy 3:7).
