God is concerned about our salvation – deliverance and redemption from sin. You begin to limit yourself when you think that God is only concerned about a fraction of your life. This includes our personal, social, emotional, and professional lives, among other things. That means He is concerned about every aspect of our life. Remember, God is concerned about our salvation. The truth is, when we recognize God’s grace and the depth of it, we can move in the direction of more love. If you believe that your spiritual life can grow without God’s grace, you’ve missed the entire definition of grace. There is no way that we can live without God’s help. Yes, we are saved by grace, but we are also transformed by grace. Too many Christians think that if they sin less, they need God’s grace less. Yet, God gives us His grace because of His extraordinary love for us.Īs believers, we are not only saved by grace but we, in fact evolve through grace. It is not earned, and we don’t deserve it. It is underserved kindness, acceptance, and favor because of Jesus Christ. First, we should think of grace as an incredible gift from God.
Grace is a simple concept, but still hard for many of us to wrap our heads around because of its weight.
So what does it really mean to be saved by grace? Ephesians 2:8-9 says, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God…” If a person is saved, that means they have received God’s grace. Many of us are familiar with the concept of grace.
