| Bible Study: Grace |
By: Evangelist W.C. “Dub” Dellinger
|
Grace is recognized as the unmerited favors of God. Grace is brought out as actions on something or for something. Grace is used many times in the bible. 36 chapters use the word. The first time grace was used was on Noah when you read, but Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. We find out why God chose Noah to be the first man to receive grace. He was a just man and perfect in his generations. Please don’t let that word perfect throw you. Noah put all his knowledge and his backbone into life at that day and time (God requires the same out of us today). You have to be perfect sometime in your life to get to heaven. God’s perfect is not only do’s and don’ts. You have to be made over by His Son perfect in his sight “sin free”. That is perfect in God’s sight. The life you live is what counts with your saviour. You should live a just life, meaning to walk humbly with your God, no false tales, helping others. Be honest with yourself. Some people never keep their word. If Jesus had told Peter I will see you at 12:00 tonight, Jesus would be there, and he expects us to do the same or no grace can be found. An almighty God has the right to hold Grace and not pass it out. He also has the right to demand what kind of life we have to live to get to heaven. We move into our Saviour and His Father’s Grace when we are saved. Who is to say that He don’t hand out grace at times when he sees ahead of us and knows what we will someday be doing for him because he needs helpers he can use for his power to show anyone the right way.
