    The Marvelous Gift of Grace Ephesians 2: 8-10 Over the past few weeks, we have considered the desperate situation of mankind. There is no doubt that we are all born in sin, separated from God and in danger of eternal condemnation because of sin. Thankfully, God understood man’s desperate need and ...read more
