Understanding God's True Grace

Grace is the favor of GOD that gives us access to the power of GOD for everything we need for life and godliness.

Many Christians find it difficult to understand grace because they confuse it for mercy. Grace is the undeserved,unearned favor of GOD that gives us access to the power of GOD for everything we need in life and for godliness. Mercy is when we have sinned and deserve judgment, yet because of the blood of Jesus we don't receive the punishment we should.

 

Grace gives favor to access the power of GOD; mercy releases us from the judgment of GOD.
None of us deserves access to GOD and His power (Romans 3:23). Because of sin,we all deserve an everlasting hell. Yet God has given us access to all HE is and all He has.

Everything we need comes by Grace.And Grace comes by Faith in JESUS CHRIST (Ephesians 2 vs 8-9).
