Because of Love | Grace | Week 3 | April 14, 2024

Teacher: Adam Barnett

The grace of God is undeniably and entirely a gift.

/> “Grace is love that seeks you out when you have nothing to give in return. Grace is love coming at you that has nothing to do with you. Grace is being loved when you are unlovable… Grace has everything to do with the lover, not the beloved. It has nothing to do with weights and measures. It has nothing to do with my intrinsic qualities or so-called ‘gifts,’ whatever they may be. It reflects a decision on the part of the giver, the one who loves, in relation to the receiver, the one who is loved, that negates any qualifications the receiver may personally hold. Grace is one-way love.” - Paul Zahl

/> For you know the grace of out Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor so that you through his poverty might become rich.

2 Corinthians 8:9

/> "Grace is free, nut it is not cheap"

/> So what do we do? Keep on sinning so God can keep on forgiving? I should hope not! If we've left the country where sin is sovereign, how can we still live in our old house there? Or didn't you realize we packed up and left there for good?That is what happened in baptism. When we went under the water, we left the old country of sin behind; when we came up out of the water, we entered into a new country of grace - a new life in a new land!

Romans 6:1-3 (MSG)

/> My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.

2 Corinthians 12:9
