Grace, We Need It!

As we continue through (2 Timothy) we come to the second point. That is, that Grace comes from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. So what is grace? Many people have different ways of defining such a word.

• It is the Greek word charis – contains the idea of kindness which is bestowed on one that he has not deserved it – unmerited favor (Romans 5:1-2) 

In the Scriptures – God’s grace is described as…..

1. All-abundant – (Romans 5:19-20)
2. Glorious – (Ephesians 1:6)

God does not owe us anything; what we deserve is eternal damnation (destruction) (Romans 3:23) (Romans 6:23). We must remember that only by God’s grace is salvation possible – (Ephesians 2:8-9).
