Question

tell me what you know....

afrin: what is "c in"?

I don't think most Christians know anything about God's Grace....that is why everyone hates Christians...

Answer 1

hi...yezzz i do....this is really a cool subject but its amazing how many dont want to talk about it....Gods character has been smeared for centries by some of the religious....

grace is an act of mercy...its a merit that is given for no reason at all...like a credit card company will give you a thirty day grace period

God..in his kindness is willing to pardon you from the results of your sins! past ,present and future...an act of mercy and grace

Answer 2

God's grace is most obvious to someone who's been to an all-time low in their life. In Christ Jesus, God came to live in human form -- so He understands more than most people think. He forgives our short-comings, if we genuinely feel remorse for our sins, & He renews that mercy daily. I have only to refresh my memory of the story of the "Prodigal Son" to know the depth of His love for ALL mankind. He sent His only Son as a sacrifice for our sins, so we could be "adopted" into His family. Now you've done it -- I'm in tears!

Answer 3

Read the book of John.....that will tell you of Gods grace.

Answer 4

Well my fellow Christian God has blessed us with his divine power to help spread the word of God.

Answer 5

Christians who are saved by Grace have the "odor" of death about them.

2 Corinthians 2:15-17 (King James Version)

15For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
16To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
17For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

The word "savour" means "odor" or "flavor" a kind of metaphorical "taste".

To the unsaved (dead) those who are saved "taste" of death which makes it uncomfortable for those who are un saved to be around those who are saved.

And I bet you thought God never addressed why atheists hated and feared Christians so much.

This scripture kind of puts in perspective all those rants atheists have about how "deadly" Christians are as well as why many atheists think Christians are responsible for all wars.

Answer 10

Ephesians 2:1 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath.

4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressionsit is by grace you have been saved.

6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.

8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

11 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called "uncircumcised" by those who call themselves "the circumcision" (that done in the body by the hands of men) 12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.

13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. 14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, 16 and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.

17 He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.

19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. 21 In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. 22 And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
