Sermons on The Lordship Of The Word:

Embracing Grace

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022

The vast majority of people do not "accept" Christ (Luke 4:24) but refuse the "favor" (grace) He offers (v. 19). God has sent Christ to offer His grace. We must embrace the grace offered in Christ. Luke shows us how.
