    The grace of God continues for those who are already demonstrating the fruits of grace in their life.

    GRACE FOR THE GRACEFUL. Acts 9:36-43. I am sometimes at pains to emphasise how God’s grace abounds for sinners (cf. Romans 5:20), but in the instance before us we see how God’s grace also continues to abound for a woman who is already a “disciple”. Doctor Luke, the author of Acts, is at ...read more

    In many churches today, it is said that while Jesus was on the Cross, the Holy God poured out His wrath and turned His back, broke fellowship, and abandoned Jesus because He can't look upon sin.
