Good works are great, they are not the Way to Salvation.
Agreed. Wholeheartedly. Grace leads to gratitude, humility, and repentance for those who have experienced it.
Grace is the hallmark of the Jesus experience. Grace is God knew everything about you and chose to love you anyway. Grace is there are no secrets from your Heavenly Father and He refuses not to call you one of His children. Grace is you don’t deserve it, you can’t deserve it, the word deserve isn’t even considered. Grace is grace. And the moment you start trying to ‘earn’ it, in ‘any’ way, you have done away with grace. Grace is a gift.
I truly feel that extending grace to other people is the greatest opportunity that we’ll ever have, relationally, while we’re on this earth. We are most like Jesus when we are extending grace to other people.
