But because of His great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ – even when we were dead in transgressions – it is by grace.

Presentation transcript:

But because of His great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ – even when we were dead in transgressions – it is by grace you have been saved.

And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus. Eph 2:4-7 (NIV)

Grace Loves…

Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love - 1 John 4:18

The effect of a great love is always to cleanse. When people really & truly fall in love, their love compels them to goodness…That is what Christ does for us. When we love Him, that love re- creates and restores our will to goodness - Barclay

Grace Empowers…

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in His holy people,

and His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms. Eph 1:18-20 (NIV)

Sin destroys our will and indulgence that begins as a pleasure becomes a necessity. Jesus revives and restores that lost will - Barclay

Grace Lifts…

…and seated Him in the place of honour at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now He is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come.

God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made Him head over all things for the benefit of the church. Eph 1:20-22

For He raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.

So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of His grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all He has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.

God saved you by His grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Eph 2:6-8 (NLT)
