OUR GRACIOUS AND LOVING GOD God is “merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin…” (Exodus 34:6-7)

AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE (Titus 2:11) The grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men  “Has appeared” – in and through Christ (3:4-7)  “To all men” – no one exempted or left out (1 Tim. 2:4; 1 Jn. 2:2)

AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE (Titus 2:11) Doctrine of limited atonement/grace is false (Calvinism: Jesus died only for the elect)  Jesus died for all, but only those who believe and obey will be saved (Jn. 3:16)

REVEALED IN GOD’S WORD (Colossians 1:5-6) Hear and know about the grace of God “in the word of the truth of the gospel”  Gospel has come to “all the world” (cf. v. 23)  Everyone can know and understand the true grace of God by hearing and studying the word of God (Acts 14:3; 20:24; 2 Tim. 2:15)

REVEALED IN GOD’S WORD (Colossians 1:5-6) God’s grace will always be in harmony with God’s truth (Jn. 1:14, 16-17)  Any teaching about divine grace not in harmony with truth is false doctrine

BASIS OF OUR SALVATION (Acts 15:11) It is by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ that we are saved (2 Cor. 8:9)  By the grace of God Jesus died for all men providing redemption (Heb. 2:9; Eph. 1:7)

BASIS OF OUR SALVATION (Acts 15:11) The grace of God brings [provides] salvation (Tit. 2:11)  We are justified freely by God’s grace (Rom. 3:24), not by works of merit (4:4)

ACCESSED BY FAITH (Romans 5:1-2) Grace of God is “accessed” by faith (freedom to enter through assistance of another)  God purifies hearts by faith (Acts 15:9); grace provides purification and faith accesses it  Salvation is by grace [God’s part] through faith [man’s part] (Eph. 2:7-8) Salvation not by grace alone or faith alone, but both in proper combination (1 Tim. 1:12-16)

TEACHES GODLY LIVING (Titus 2:11-12) The grace of God teaches us to:  Deny ungodliness and worldly lusts (1 Thess. 5:22; 1 Jn. 2:15-17)  Live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age (2 Cor. 7:1; Rom. 13:13-14)

TEACHES GODLY LIVING (Titus 2:11-12) Word of grace able to build us up and give us an inheritance (Acts 20:32) Grow in the “grace and knowledge” of our Lord Jesus (1 Pet. 2:1-3; 2 Pet. 3:18)

God is gracious and … HOLY (Rev. 4:8) LOVING (1 Jn. 4:7-8, 16) MERCIFUL (Jas. 5:11) LONGSUFFERING (2 Pet. 3:9) COMPASSIONATE (Psa. 86:15) FORGIVING (Psa. 130:3-4) HOLY (1 Pet. 1:15-16) LOVING (Matt. 22:37-39) MERCIFUL (Lk. 6:35-36) LONGSUFFERING (Eph. 4:1-2) COMPASSIONATE (1 Pet. 3:8) FORGIVING (Eph. 4:32) We are to be …

More Like God! We are to be “partakers of the divine nature” (2 Pet. 1:4) Are you walking with your God? Can others see the perfect will of God in our lives?
