It has always been by Grace

It was established before the foundation of the world, that Jesus Christ would come, to save His people. I read and hear what some write and speak about this age of grace we are in. But it has never been limited to theNew Testament. Noah, found grace, in the eyes of the LORD. The deliverance of the people of Israel, was not due to works. Nor their descendants entering into the land of promise.

We struggle, theologically, intellectually, and also spiritually, with these things given us. Grace, mercy, and love, through our Lord Jesus Christ. The new birth through the Holy Spirit. The relationship they have with our faith and obedience. And scripturally, there is definitely a relationship folks. The greatest of theologians, and churches, their teachings, and books, and statements, and people, have failed to truly understand it all. And still do. You, and I, are no exceptions, regardless of what we might think.

That God would come, and that God would show us this mercy and grace, through Jesus Christ, is beyond us, or our understanding, really. Angels desire to look into it too. You, nor I, can name ONE, that has walked this earth, that earned God's favor through their works. It has been, is now, and forever will be, due to God's love for us, through His Son Jesus Christ. And the grace, mercy, and reconciliation that is only possible through His Son Jesus Christ. The religions of the world have nothing to do with it. Whether Mosaic, Islamic, Buddist, Mormon, and, or, all the other many names of religion out there.

We are saved by grace, through faith, in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God. Miss this, and all has and is done in vain. And, like it or not, regardless of what we add or take away from this. A new creation, is only possible, and done, through Jesus Christ. Through His coming, and why He came. Through His death upon the cross, as a sin sacrifice, and His resurrection, and His intercession on our behalf. Those who believe and come to God through Him. I have came here and written, much, but, this is really the only points that matter. Let us be thankful, and let us honor God, in and through His Son Jesus Christ. Through the mercy, and grace, that God shows through Him, and always has, and will. God Bless.
