Scriptures “See to it that no one misses the grace of God.” (Hebrews 12:15) “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” (Galatians 2:20) “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you, I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh (that’s God-willed, not self-willed).” (Ezekiel 36:26) “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people.” (Titus 2:11) “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8–9) “The glorious riches of this mystery in a nutshell is this: Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Colossians 1:27)
