Receive God's grace in Christ. Grace is far more than a theological term or a religious song. Grace is God Himself. He is the God of all grace. Grace is the gift of undeserved favor that we can never earn nor merit. Receive grace as the gift of God, and not of your works (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Receive God's grace through the gospel of Christ (Romans 1:16). The gospel is the power of God changing our lives through Christ our Lord. So many look to laws and rules to change people and society. The law may dictate how we should live, what we should do, or not do. Nevertheless, the law is powerless to change our hearts and lives.
Receive God's grace confessing Jesus is Lord, by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3). That's our new birth (Titus 3:5). Grace changes us from within. Grace renews the mind, taking away the guilt of conscience, and renews the will to do God's good will. The law of God tells us what we ought to be; the grace of God makes us what we ought to be.
Receive the fullness of God's grace in our Lord Jesus Christ. Receive grace as the unmerited favor of God in Christ alone. And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace (John 1:16). Receiving Jesus Christ is receiving the fullness of grace to save us. Believing Christ is receiving Christ (John 1:11-12). Receive the grace of God freely by faith in Christ.
