We cannot pick and choose which aspects of God’s nature we will accept. The Scriptures are His living Word.

Grace
Grace makes all of God’s blessings available, but faith receives them.
We could think of the gospel as a limitless bag of grace seeds, each seed fully prepared to accomplish God’s purpose in your life!
Using the Law to understand spiritual truths about the Kingdom and about Christ is not ‘mixing the Law with grace.’
Today is a new beginning. If you need a new beginning, take it.
Rejection is the soil in which unbelief grows. Each time we experience a rejection the potential for doubt and unbelief increases. How can you have faith in life, others or yourself when you believe you are unlovely, incapable or inadequate in some way?
When you can understand the three dimensions of grace, you can more fully comprehend the dimensions of righteousness, sanctification, forgiveness and even healing.
The Gospel has two dimensions. There is the vertical reality of all that Christ has done for us in redemption. His grace speaks of the finished work of the cross, reconciliation, forgiveness, acceptance and peace with God. The horizontal represents man’s response and responsibility in the world in which we live.
How would you live your life differently if you knew that you were the only object of God’s love and grace? How would it impact you if you knew that all of His power was at your disposal?
Did you know that more of God’s grace is available to you than you may be walking in now? Grace, like faith, can be ever increasing in our lives. There are keys to seeing grace multiplied unto us.
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, (2 Pet. 1:2)
The gospel of grace is the revelation of the abundant provision of God in order that you might have all sufficiency in all things (spirit, soul and body), that you may abound unto good works, that you would be enriched in everything for all liberality.
Why do some believers move from death to life, darkness to light, chaos to order and depression to joy while other believers seem to continue in the misery of chronic failure and lives filled with drama and lack? Have we not all been made new creations?
