Amazing Grace!

One of the greatest songs ever written may not have been if there was no storm and if John Newton hadn't cried out to God. From generation to generation everyone you ask has most likely heard this song. But what is this amazing grace all about? To answer that let's look at the bible.

2 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:1-10 ESV

This amazing Grace all boils down to that God loves us so much that he is willing to give us grace for what we have done and forgive us our sins and the things we have done if we just confess and ask for it. the reason this grace is so amazing is that no else does this like God. Baal didn't in the bible and any other God you can think of didn't give this kind of grace, why because they were not such thing as those gods, they were man-made Gods. God is the only God that was not made by man but was before man. 

For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. Colossians 1:16 ESV. So it says in the verse above that He created all things, so for that to be He had to exist before all things were created. No other god can say that because they didn't exist like God does. So that is why His grace is so amazing!

Have an amazing grace day!!!
