Saved By Grace Through Faith
In accordance with Titus (2:11-12) and Romans (5:1-2) what is the Gospel of Divine Grace? Is it that you are saved by grace alone? That a person by obedient faith to the Word of God from the heart does nothing in response to the Gospel Call of Yeshua Messiah in Matt (28:18-20, Mark 16:15-16)?
Yours in Yeshua,
John
Hello John,
Greetings in the Name of Yeshua.
Ephesians 2:8-10..."For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of G-d, NOT of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them."
John 3:16 ..."For G-d so loved the world that he 'gave' His ONLY begotten SON so that 'whosoever believeth ' in Him should NOT perish but have Everlasting Life."
After we have believed and accepted Yeshua (as our personal Savior)....we are saved... we are 'justified' by 'faith'...then we should have a desire to "turn' and "change" from the old man, not wanting to sin again...but when or if we do sin... (the Holy Spirit will convict us so that we can confess that sin and be forgiven immediately. IJohn 1:9..If we confess our sins He is 'Faithful' and 'Just' to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from "all' 'unrighteousness." His Love and Blood is greater than our sin.
Rom 8:1......"There is therefore 'NOW' 'NO' condemnation to those who are "in' Christ Jesus....who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.....
IJohn 2:1..."My little children, these things I write to you that 'you may not sin'. AND 'if' anyone sins, we Have An 'Advocate' with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous...2...and He Himself is the Propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
2Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a 'New' creation; old things have passed away, behold, all things have become new.
Hope this helps. Blessings to you in Yeshua.
