 Saved By God”s GRACE By The Death of Jesus

Saved by Grace through faith Ephesians 2:8-9 (NKJV) 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

2 Timothy 1: 7-9 (NIV) 7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid but gives us power, love, and self-discipline. 8 So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God. 9 He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.

As I read this I can picture Paul talking to Timothy, I hear the words echoing. We are no different we are saved by Gods GRACE by the Death of Jesus. It is very clear here that it is not because of anything we have done [and I might add] nothing we can do, it is because of Gods GRACE we are saved.

We were not given a timid spirit we were given the spirit of power, love, and SELF-DISCIPLINE, we are not to be ashamed of who we are or who we serve. God’s GRACE is the reason Jesus came to earth, born of a virgin walked and NEVER sinned and DIED on a cross so that we, I will say it again, might LIVE through our Faith based on Gods GRACE toward us.

So let us stand tall as Christians and be what we are… Daughters and Sons of the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We are the children of the most powerful, the richest, the greatest Father there is so let us start being what we are.
