The Distorted Message Of Grace That We Preach / Understanding The "Grace Of God" And The "Gospel Of Grace" / How Can A Christian Be Strong In The Lord? (2) (3) (4)
Be Strong In The Grace That’s In Christ Jesus by Gombs(m): 10:40am On Dec 03, 2014 |
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might (Ephesians 6:10). Being strong in the Lord doesn’t mean being strong in your physical might or muscles; no! It means to be strong in the grace that’s in Christ Jesus; to take advantage of His grace. The Apostle Paul said to Timothy, “Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 2:1). Not everybody is strong in the grace that's in Christ Jesus, but God's Word says to take advantage of His grace. So it's something you have to do for yourself. Understand what that grace has brought to you and take advantage of it. For example, the grace of Jesus Christ has brought us divine health in the Gospel; take advantage of that grace and stay in divine health. Refuse to be sick. His grace brought us prosperity as well; therefore, refuse to be poor: “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich” (2 Corinthians 8:9). His grace has ushered us into a life of righteousness: “...They which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:17). Grace reigns by righteousness. Therefore, take advantage of His grace and keep reigning in life. Understand what it means to be endowed with God’s grace; it means God has given Himself to you, thereby giving you all that He has. By grace, you received His life and nature of righteousness, with dominion to rule over the devil, sickness, disease, the world, and its systems. Blessed be God! Refuse to be swayed by the adversities of life; take advantage of the grace of God in Christ Jesus. Live the Word; that's what it's all about. Study the Word to know more about your heritage in Christ. You can’t take advantage of His grace until you know what His grace has done for you, given to you, and made you. No wonder He says in 2 Peter 3:18, “But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ....” |

Gombs: Your prosperity and divine health ish. These things are not guaranteed to believers in this fallen and wicked world. Stop misapplying scriptures here and there. |

Gombs: If Jesus were here today, I'm sure he's the one who would be in Grace. And she'll love it. |

An2elect2: Because God loves him regardless An2elect2: The gospel is complete, and guaranteed to ALL who believe, whether in this fallen world or unfallen (whatever that means). Stop being ignorant. AlfaSeltzer: He's alive, now and forever, and we're partakers of His grace, and share in His glory. Now, take not His grace in vain. The fact you claim to dislike Him and live, is a direct result of grace. 1 Like |

Gombs: That is what you think. The scripture says God hates the wicked psalm11:5. The love of God is in Christ Jesus. Rom 8:39. Those outside of Christ do not have claim to this love. They are only walking this world because of God's benevolence that is shown both to the righteous and unrighteous. The gospel is complete, and guaranteed to ALL who believe, whether in this fallen world or unfallen (whatever that means). Stop being ignorant. [[/quote]] The gospel you are preaching is not the gospel. Hope you understand it this time. He's alive, now and forever, and we're partakers of His grace, and share in His glory. Now, take not His grace in vain. The fact you claim to dislike Him and live, is a direct result of grace.[/quote] |

An2elect2: Quit the absurdity, God wants no onento perish. You need the scripture? The love of God is in Christ Jesus. Rom 8:39. God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son. You should learn the Scriptures Those outside of Christ do not have claim to this love. Read John 3:16 and Romans 5:5 They are only walking this world because of God's benevolence that is shown both to the righteous and unrighteous. Rev 3 :20 The gospel is complete, and guaranteed to ALL who believe, whether in this fallen world or unfallen (whatever that means). Stop being ignorant. [] The gospel you are preaching is not the gospel.You are the wrong one buddy! He's alive, now and forever, and we're partakers of His grace, and share in His glory. Now, take not His grace in vain. The fact you claim to dislike Him and live, is a direct result of grace. ![]() |
