The Concept of Grace

Sometimes it is hard for us as humans to fully understand grace. We hear the phrase "His grace is sufficient," which comes from 2 Corinthians 12:9, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." However, at times grace can be hard to actually understand, and even harder for us to put into practice. We ask ourselves how our sin can be fully covered by His grace.

 

Dr. David Jeremiah once said, "The concept of grace is hard to understand because it's so far removed from how we as fallen people relate to each other. But grace is grace--and grace changes things." In Romans 5:20 it says, "...where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

 

Another thought to consider,
