     | 22,026 views

    Our amazement at God’s grace grows the more we see that it comes at Christ’s expense, which means that grace is totally undeserving by us, that grace is only in Jesus, and that grace is for God’s glory.

The Word of God through which the Holy Spirit touches our hearts are the words he breathed into the Apostle Paul to write, recorded in Ephesians 2: But because of his great love for us, God, ...read more
