Precious friends, the following is just a small portion of God's Wonderful Grace Doctrine:
A) Generally, across all of God's Dispensations, we find:
God's "Unmerited Favor" Upon All mankind, both the just and also the unjust:
"That ye may be the children of your Father Which is in heaven: for He Maketh His sun to rise on
the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." (Matthew 6:45 AV)
B) Specifically, In God's Current:
Dispensation Of Grace ("Given To Paul" Ephesians 3:2; Colossians 1:25 AV), According to God's Revelation Of
The Mystery (where, In Paul's writings, Romans Through Philemon, Grace Is Found A Large Total Of 70 Times! ):
1) In God's Relationship With His children, Grace ( Unmerited Favor ) Is His Method For Eternal Salvation:
"Being Justified Freely By His Grace Through The [ ALL-Sufficient ] Redemption
God's Amazing Grace Has "No works" added to It For His Eternal Salvation Given To sinners:
"And if By Grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise Grace is no more Grace. But if it
be of works, then is it no more Grace: otherwise work is no more work." (Romans 11:6 AV)
"To The Praise Of The Glory Of His Grace, Wherein He Hath Made us Accepted In The Beloved! In Whom we
have Redemption Through His BLOOD, The Forgiveness of sins, According To The Riches Of His Grace!!"
(Ephesians 1:6-7 AV)
After receiving general Grace, and then The Initial Glorious Grace For "Justification and Peace" From God...:
"Therefore being Justified By faith, we have Peace With God Through our Lord Jesus Christ:" (Romans 5:1 AV):
...Then:
2) In our "fellowship With God", His Grace Is On-Going, In Which we "have access and stand":
"By Whom also we have access by faith into This Grace Wherein
we stand, and rejoice in hope of The Glory of God." (Romans 5:2 AV)
a) On-Going and ALL-Sufficient Grace For:
1) "Power of Christ" in our infirmities!:
"And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given
to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
For this thing I besought The Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And He Said unto me,
My Grace Is Sufficient For thee: for My Strength Is Made Perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore
will I rather glory in my infirmities, that The Power Of Christ May Rest Upon me." (2 Corinthians 12:7-9 AV)
2) On-Going Grace For Putting on the "Whole Armour of God", and standing! (Ephesians 6:10-24 AV)
3) God's Gift Of On-Going Grace Is Very Abundant! "...Abounding Unto Many..." (Romans 5:15-21 AV)
4) Daily personal sanctification, By On-Going Grace, along with Mercy, Through Paul, Beseeches us:
"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the Mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed
to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is
that Good, and Acceptable, and Perfect Will of God.
For I say, Through The Grace Given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of
himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God Hath Dealt
To every man the measure of faith" (Romans 12:1-3 AV)
5) Grace Is A Teacher:
"For The Grace of God That Bringeth Salvation Hath Appeared to all men, Teaching us that,
denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this
present world; Looking for That Blessed Hope, and The Glorious Appearing of The Great God
and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who Gave Himself for us, that He might Redeem us from all iniquity,
and Purify Unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works" (Titus 2:11-14 AV)
b) On-Going Grace:
1) Until God's Great GRACE Departure, for building up and receiving inheritance:
"And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to The Word Of His Grace, Which Is Able To
build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified" (Acts 20:32 AV)
2) And Then, Still On-Going: God's Exceeding Riches In The Eternal Ages To Come!:
"That in the ages to come He might Shew The Exceeding Riches Of His Grace
In His Kindness Toward us Through Christ Jesus." ( Ephesians 2:7 AV )
C) Precious friends:"The Grace Of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen."
(or similar, at "The End" of all 13 of Paul's Grace letters...)
And, Please Be Very Richly Encouraged And Edified In The Amazing GRACE Of
The Lord Jesus Christ, and In His Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided!
