As we know there is always a word from the Lord.
Tonight that commission of the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
We are going to.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Be coming from our foundational texts First Corinthians chapter fifteen
and ten, and we will also be reading a supportive
text coming from John chapter one, verse seven teen. As
we returned to First Corinth, the chapter fifteen and verse ten,
(05:06):
there you will find these words. But by the grace of.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
God, I am what I am, and his.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain,
but I labored more abundantly than they all. Yet not
I but the grace.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Of God, which was with me.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Our supportive text coming from.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
John chapter one and verse seventeen rees for the law
was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by
Jesus Christ. Our subject matter for tonight, which will really
be based on our foundation of texts along with other
(06:01):
supported passages as we go throughout this Bible discussion. Our
topic tonight is God's amazing grace. Gods amazing grace. Before
we even go into our lesson on tonight, just want
(06:24):
to give us some things to provoke our thoughts on tonight.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
How many of us have.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Been in situations that should have taken us.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Out, how many of.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Us have participated in unholy conversation or activities totally against
the will of God for our lives, And just another
point of thought, how many of us have not always
followed the divine app that God has cut out for us,
(07:05):
just some things for us to ponder as we go
through this Bible discussion tonight, and.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Knew that by all of these points.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Of matter that was mentioned, we came through by the
scale of our teeth only because of God's amazing grief. Now,
as we attempt to go into our discussion on tonight,
let us say this. Apostle Paul is the author of
(07:38):
First Corinthians, with a theme which addresses Christian life and conduct.
The occasion for this text was due to a letter
that Paul received inquiring about certain doctors as well as
(08:02):
he had a visit from some of the brethren from
the church at for renp and they came to Paul
reporting on the condition and different problems that was happening
within the church. So now we are all dealing in
(08:25):
this modern day time with these same matters. Therefore, Paul
took time to address the matters expeditiously now. In particular,
in our text tonight, he addresses the issue of maintaining
(08:45):
humility while serving, not forgetting that it is only because
of God's amazing grace that we.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Even live, and we are living.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Undeservedly, because when we look at our lives compared to
the life of the believer according to God's word, we know.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
That by every right, every.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
One of us should have been somewhere in the graveyard somewhere,
But because of God's amazing grace, the undeservedly poured out
his grace on us. Now what is Greece. Grace means
(09:35):
that God does everything. He supplies every need, he solves
every problem. He strengthens us in every trial and weakness,
And no matter what we encounter in life, he daily
(09:58):
reminds us through his worried that His grace is sufficient
enough and has been given as a gift nothing that
we earn or could ever earn to get us through
every crisis.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Anybody like going.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Through a crisis on tonight. But we pray that this
Bible study discussion on God's amazing grace bless you richly tonight.
As John chapter one and verse seventeen declares, for the
law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came
(10:41):
by Jesus Christ. Now the law were the commandments of
God could only point out our sins, our shortcomings, our failures,
our faults, and condemn us sound out what mankind does
us doesn't it at a lawyer and passed judgment and
(11:05):
sentenced us according to the Lord. However, when Jesus Christ
came into the world, he came with a purpose and
a reason, and on a mission in mind. He came
and he brought God's amazing grace and truth, not disallowing
(11:30):
the law of God, but fulfilling what the law and
the commandments of God could not do, which was provide
the gift.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Of God's amazing grace.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Grace to be forgiven, grace to be justified, grace to
be sanctified, and grace to be reconciled back to a
holy God.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Moses gave man God's law, but Jesus gave man god
amazing grace. How did he do that by the shedding
of his precious blood that washed.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
And cleansed us from our sin.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
He died on the cross and purchased our salvation with
its blood and his death. Do anybody on.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
The line know of anyone.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
That would die for us or even shed their blood
on our behalf?
Speaker 3 (12:49):
And guess what, even if they did.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
It wouldn't matter, because there is no power in the blood.
There is no powers in the death of man. Salvation
unto us, it only come through Jesus Christ. Ephesian chapter two,
verse eight through ten reminds us of this concerning the
(13:20):
gift of God, Amazing Greece, because many times we mess up,
we make mistakes, we fall and we fail, and we
fall down and don't know how to give up, and
man won't even lend us a health in hand. But
we better think thought to night for his amazing grace.
And it reads by grace, are ye says through faith,
(13:47):
and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of God,
not of work, lest any man should boast, for we
are here work mensieur created in Christ Jesus, unto good
(14:10):
risks which God hath before ordained that we should walk
in them. What was being said here about the apostle,
We have been resurrected from sin death. We were dead
(14:33):
in our sin. But where we accept that what Jesus
Christ did for us on the cross, that was a
spiritual resurrection, that we were raised from death to our
spiritual life, and it was by the gift of God,
(14:54):
Amazing Greece. We cannot drag about it. We boast in
the Lord Jesus Christ, because there was nothing that we did,
except at Selt what Jesus did for us on the cross.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
We better remember tonight that it was.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
God's showice to grant his grace unto us. We didn't
deserve it, for his amazing grace was unmerited. We could
not earn it by good words. We were created to
do the same works as Jesus Christ. Even greater Jesus
(15:42):
themselves said we should do greater works than he did,
because God has already gifted us with his amazing grace
and truth by his son Jesus Christ. See, Jesus brought
something to the table for us that nobody in the
(16:04):
flesh can even offer us, let alone give it to us.
He came, and he set the standard, leaving the blueprint
for all believers the fall. A Christian believer lives entirely
(16:25):
by the grace of Almighty God. Now in our foundation
of texts, the apostle Paul mentioned.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Grace three times.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
The first time he said, by the grace of God,
I am who I am. The second time he said
his grace which was bestowed upon me. And the third
time he said, not I but the grace of God.
(16:59):
Rich God with me. So as the grace of God
was with all, It was also and still.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Is with us.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Who are the believers of to day that have accepted
Christ as our personal savior. And we understand that all
good things come from above, not from mankind, not for
what the world have all of us. They are good
(17:31):
to us, but they're not necessarily good for us. But
by God, amazing Greece. Everything that God offers, and everything
that God gives is good for us and has a
purpose and a reason and a plan in mind. We
(17:53):
as Christian believers, should remember that the Word of God
is the God of his amazing grace. We attempt to
take credit with some merit of words, However, all emphatic
(18:13):
states in Roman chapter seven and verse eighteen of these words.
For I know that in me, who had no good thing,
for to will is present with me. But how to
perform that which is good? I find not what was
(18:38):
Paul Ashley saying here. He was saying that I want
to do the right thing, but it's somehow over powered
by the luck of my own willful flesh. My passions
(18:58):
are stronger than my sound reasoning. Therefore, people of God,
we should live entirely by the gift of God's amazing grace,
because but for His grace, somebody says they'll go out,
(19:21):
Meaning we cannot point our fingers in condemnation and judgment
at anybody who is still out there living in life
that is not called by God for them to live,
no matter what their lifestyle is, because they have not
yet cow mean to the knowledge of how this grace
(19:43):
that God brought by this son, Jesus Christ, how it
works for us that it is a gift that has
been given to those that will receive it. Now, as
Masuring believers, we realize the more how helpless we are
(20:05):
when we try to live our life without Jesus Christ.
He told us that at John chapter fifteen and verse five,
Jesus himself said this, He said, I am the vine.
(20:25):
You are the branches he that abided in me, and
I in him the same, bringing forth much fruit, for
without me he can do nothing. So even Jesus himself
(20:48):
was wanting us that we should not try to take
the medals of our life in our own hands and
exclude him, never consulting him, never asking him any directions
on what we need to do, because He has already
laid out a path for us to follow the word
(21:09):
of God tells us that the steps of a good
man are ordered by the Lord. So he has already
ordered up the path. But every step that we are
to take, and it involved his amazing grace. But we
we try to live life and do life in it
(21:32):
without Jesus Christ, we are setting ourself.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Up already for failure.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Now we need the gift of God's abounding and amazing grace,
not sometimes, not most times, but we need his abounding
and amazing greece at old times and in every life situation.
(22:08):
Now there is a administration to the gift of grace,
meaning there are raised to step their paths for us
to receive this greece. The first one is through the
words of God. That's why it is so very not
(22:29):
just import them, but it is critical did bother the
cause that we studied the words of God to find
out about God's amazing graece. Paul speaking to the elders
of the church at Ephesus concerning building up one another,
(22:55):
he said this to them, you know, you don't need
to be tearing one of the other dogt but you
need to be building one another up. So he said
this to them in Acts chapter fourteen and verse three.
Long time their foods a bold they speaking baldly in
(23:20):
the Lord Rich gave testimony unto the word of His
grace and granted some signs and wonders to be done
by their sins. Now, while in Chayam preaching the gospel,
(23:41):
many Junes believed, and we're seen. That is why it's
so important me. We cannot teach the words, or we
cannot impart the words for anybody, and we don't know
what the Word is saying to us. We gotta first
know the words for ourself. Then we can share that
word with somebody else that they too might become saved,
(24:06):
not because of us, but be saved because of and
by the words of God. Unbelieving Jews of polls Paul
and the other disciples that we're traveling with Paul and
teaching the gospel. But God demonstrated his gift of amazing
(24:30):
grace being poured out by the working of signs and
wonders through Paul and his companion. Now that was God's
amazing grace because he promises us that I will never
post thank you, and I will never leave you alone.
And he also tells us that you know that we
(24:53):
should always depend on him and rely on him even
in whatever we need to say, even when we study,
even if we don't remember it. He tells us that
in the hours that we need it, he said, I
will give it to you mean hour, bring back to
your remembrance what you read about me and my amazing grace.
(25:19):
In Acts chapter twenty and verse thirty two, Paul commits
the Efficient Church into the hands of God after many
warnings of the Restoration, seeing God will send us many, many, many,
(25:39):
many many warnings in hope that we will turn our
life around and turn away from the things and the
pleasures of the world that keeps us from serving Him.
But he wants us to turn to him and be
satisfied by the thing that He has already preordained for
(26:04):
our lives. So Paul turned them over back.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Into the hands of God.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
And this is what the scripture reads. At Acts twenty
and verse thirty two, Paul said, 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
(26:34):
you and any inheritance among all them which are sank
to fins. Again at the important diabolical reason why we
need to study the word because for every life situation,
for everything that we encounter in our life, there is
(26:56):
a word from the Lord that is lack medicon, being
amnistered to our mind, to our heart, to our very
spirit and our soul that will cause us to be
healed from anything that is causing any unrest in us
(27:16):
that is not like God the words of his amazing
greacells Jesus christ Ah. I pray that we all know
Jesus on the line tonight. Beguins what in the event
that we really don't know him, we still have opportunity,
because we are on the line and we are having
(27:38):
this grand opportunity to hear about the amazing grace of
God to let us know that we do not through
remain in a unclean light, that we can turn our
life over to Him and he can restore and he'll
(28:00):
restore us back to them. Stealth at seventeen and check
Chapter seventeen and verse three says opening and alleging that
Christ must needs have something. I listen at this. I
want us to hear to night. So the scripture say
(28:23):
that Christ must need have something me he had to
go through the things that he went through Christ must
needs have suffered.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
And rison again from the.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Days he went down, but he got back up. And
that this Jesus whom I preach unto you is Christ.
So Christ himself, Jesus Christ themselves is the amazing grace
of God. It was Grace that was arrested in the
(29:04):
garden of gas Semite. It was Grace that was beaten
all night long till his role was dripping in blood.
It was grace that was nailed to the cross, and
it was grace that brought us victory through the shedding.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Of his blood and its death.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
And Grace is Jesus Christ. Now what did Paul preach
to them about how they would be built up? To See,
there's the way that the Lord have already set up
for us to be built up in the Lord. Number one,
(29:44):
by the words of God. Again, we must read and
study and meditate on the Word of God, because it
is his loved letter to us, and everything in that
letter is what we need to live our life accordingly
(30:04):
to the standards of God, that we would be with
Him eternally. The second way is because of the blood
of Jesus Christ. There was a songwriter that wrote the
song what can wash away my sin. Nothing but the
blood of Jesus. What can make me hold again? Nothing
(30:29):
but the blood of Jesus. And then the songwriter goes
on to say, all pressure is that blood that makes
me while that know no other found, I knew nothing
but the blood of Jesus. And then the third way
was by the amazing grace of God and by the
(30:51):
gifts of the Holy Spirit. Now, what are these gifts
which are by the grace of God? And when they're
given about the rik of God mean that we don't
deserve them, We cannot earn them, we cannot purchase them,
you know, And by every right you know, we do
(31:15):
even not have the privilege to even rag and boast
about any gift that we have, because the.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Gift came from God, and it.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Was his own shows who he chooses to bestore these
gifts upon, and he can do that that way, because
the gifts are his to administer to whoever he wants to. Now,
when we look at First Corinthians, chapter twelve and verses
(31:46):
eight through ten, there it says for to one is
given by the spirit the word of wisdom, to another
the word of note by the same spirit, to another
faith by the same spirit.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
To another, the.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Gifts of healing by the same spirit to another, the
working of miracles to another, prophecy to another, discerning of
spirits to another, diverse kinds of tongues to another, the
(32:40):
interpretation of tongues. But I want us to note that
throughout the whole reading of these passages, I want us
to underscore where it says that all of these gifts
are given by one and the same spirit, Jesus Christ,
(33:01):
Oh Hellaluyah, God buy his own amazing grace. They will
tell you, nobody in the office of the five Fold
Ministry cannot be stolen, no gifts on nobody. The gifts
come from God. So again, God buy his own amazing grease.
(33:25):
He givets whom ever he pleases with these precious gifts.
It is the Lord's choice who has the gifts that
we just finished talking about. And none of these gifts
can anybody in the flesh be stored upon. And the us,
(33:47):
I don't care if they pour a gallon of oil
on your head and you'll be like a greasy chicken
ready to go into the frying pan. This they cannot
pour no guift upon nobody, neither laying hands on anybody.
Can mankind impart a gift in nobody?
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Do you hear what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
If the gift is given through those things, through signs
and waters, it is because of the working of the
Holy Spirit of God that moves in through and out
and to the one that God intends for the gift
to be bestowed upon. But know that the gift does
(34:31):
not come from man, It comes from God them self.
Now they can also come through the Spirit. According to
Hebrews chapter ten and verse twenty nine, it says there
(34:53):
we need to ask and pray for grace through the
the Spirit, not through mankind, not through your captor, not
through your profit, not not through your pastor not through
the evangelist of the teacher. And you don't get it
that we're not through the apostle or the bishop. But
(35:16):
we need to ask and pray for grace through the
Holy Spirit. The scripture at Hebrews ten and verse twenty
nine reads this way, of how much sorrow punishment supposed
ye shall he be thought worthy who have trodden underfoot
(35:43):
the son of God and have counted the blood of
the Covenant. Where we'll he was sanctified, and hunt only
things and have done despite unto the spirit of grace.
(36:04):
All I want us to listen to this very carefully
at this because we ourselves have misbehaved, We have acted
in a way that was not according to the will.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
Of God for our lives.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
And before we really came into the knowledge of knowing
Him as our personal savior and beginning that spiritual journey
where we really began to learn how to stand because
of the word and grace of God and not fall
down at everything that we tried to do, we were
no different. We did something that was this allowing and
(36:45):
this acknowledging for who Jesus was and is and what
he did for us at the cross. Now, what was
this passive of scripture saying the extremely forfend did Jesus?
Every time we sin and we say that we are saved,
(37:08):
it is an offense to Jesus. They treated him with
utmost disrespect and contempt. Where we say that we have
come out of the world, turned our backs on the
ways of the world, and we proclaim that we are
(37:30):
now living for the Lord, and we walk away and
go back to that which we say that the Lord
have delivered us from. We are disrespecting him and we
are causing him contempt. We are still almost in saying
that we are still causing him to bleed, because we will.
(37:54):
The Bible puts it this way, We act that the
dog that goes back to.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
Its own varments.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Oh wow, I know none of us on here tonight
because of God's amazing grace and how wonderful he is
to us. We don't want to be classified in such
a way that we have returned, or that we have
any desire to return to that old man, that old
place where the Lord brought us out of, because when
(38:21):
we are truly delivered, we won't even have a desire
to return to those places where we have been delivered from.
And any event God send us back in those places.
It is not for us to partake of what is
going on, but it's for us to go in there
and be a shining bright light so somebody else can
(38:45):
come out of those dark places where we you to be.
Then they discounted the shedding of his blood, which was
deserving of eternal punishment, where in mankind did not received,
but Jesus did when he shed his blood for us
(39:06):
on the cross. Because when we do that, it is
almost saying that he shed his blood in vain that
he might have did it for everybody else, but he
didn't shed no blood for me. That is discounting the
value and the power of the blood of Jesus Christ,
who is the amazing grace of God. And we deserved
(39:28):
nothing but eternal punishment. They were sanctified and may hold it,
but they rejected the blood of Jesus. The ultimate sin
of an apostate was that they totally rejected Jesus and
(39:50):
the works of his blood, and they insulted the Holy
Spirit of Grace and Jesus Christ. We don't want to
be classified in the category that we ever do anything
to insult the Lord Jesus Christ, nor insult the Holy Spirit.
(40:14):
Why because we will be a classified as and apost state, apoststates,
or someone who have turned their backs on the Lord.
They're living on their own agenda. The Bible say that
they have established their own raised of righteousness more than
(40:34):
submitting themselves to the righteousness of God. Oh, we don't
want to be that on tonight. Yet, see they always
a yet when it comes to Gods amazing grace, and
this is what his grace is all about. Even though
mankind had done all of these things. In the way
(40:54):
that they discounted the blood of Jesus, they insulted the
Holy Spirit, they insulted the Lord, you know, and they
brought contempt to him and disrespect to Jesus Christ. There
was still yet by God when you look at James,
look when we look. In the Book of James, chapter
four and verse six, James tells us about the gift
(41:18):
of God's amazing grace. There. The scripture at James chapter
four and verse six reads this way, but he giveth
more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisted the prime, but.
Speaker 4 (41:36):
Giveth grace unto the humble.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
He said, I'll give you grace even when you disrespect me,
even when you insult me, even when you turn your
back on me, because you know I did promise that
I will never forsake you in and I will never
leave you alung. He said, But I resent you with
your pride step. There's a price that we have to faith,
(42:03):
a restitution that we owe to our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ when we reject him. But he went on
to say, but he giveth grace unto those that is humble.
More grace shall the humble receive why Because we are
no longer disrespect to him. We are no longer allowing
(42:27):
what his blood did for us on the cross. We
are no longer doing anything or living our life that's
insulting to Him or the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
When the enemy speaks to.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
Diviur us, God gives us more amazing grace to protect
us and to show himself strong through us. Old hallelujah,
because you know that alone we are we are not strong.
(43:01):
Some of us think that we are strong. We don't
realize that. If it was not for the strength of
the Lord lack no others that was burying us up,
guiding us and protecting us, we were surely surely feeled.
But God gives us more those of us that are humble.
(43:22):
He gives us more of his amazing grace so that
we can be protected from the enemy and so that
He can show himself.
Speaker 4 (43:33):
Strong through us.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
Now there are.
Speaker 4 (43:37):
Three kinds of Greece. Three kinds of Greece.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
The first one is saving grace diffusion Chapter two and
very fine declares this, even and we were dead in
sin have quickened us.
Speaker 4 (44:03):
Together with Christ and versed eight says.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
For by grace are you saved through faith? And that
not of yourself.
Speaker 4 (44:17):
It is the gift of God.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
I wanted to hear the whole thing throughout this whole
study tonight, that grace is a gift from God. Something
we can't purchase, something that we can't earn. We cannot
do enough of good works to deserve God's amazing grace
because we are undeserving. Because still in many ways, though
(44:47):
we have been delivered from many things, there are still
issues in all of our lives that we are still
working out that we will become more like Christ. Apostle
Paul tells us that if we be in Christ and
we are a new creature, old things are passed away. Behole,
(45:10):
all things are become new. You hear what I'm saying.
He also admonished us as.
Speaker 3 (45:15):
The people of God.
Speaker 4 (45:17):
He tells us to let this flesh die, David.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
And because of God's amazing grace, we ought to be
willing to pull off something negative every day, anything that
is standing in the way of our path of becoming
moan that Christ, we need to pull it off. Basuely,
you better hear what the Word is saying on tonight.
So that is saving Greece, and it says that we
(45:44):
are forgiven and accepted by God.
Speaker 4 (45:50):
Jumped as Jesus, Christ was.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
Accepted as a perfect sacrifice on the cross, even after
taking on the sins of the world. Why could he
be accepted as a perfect sacrifice because he took on.
Speaker 4 (46:08):
The sins of the world.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
The sins was not his. He took upon himself sins
that mankind had committed. That's why he could be the
perfect sacrifice, because there was no sin in him. By
tacking on the sins of the world. By God's amazing Greece,
(46:31):
he did not become a sinner. The Bible said he
became thin, meaning he took on sin, but he never sinned,
so he was never classified as a sinner. But he
was the one. He was classified as a savior, not
a sinner, but a savior because a sinner can't save nobody.
(46:56):
He better hear that.
Speaker 4 (46:58):
On that night, Jesus became the.
Speaker 2 (47:02):
Ransom of the death that we could never pay in
order to redeem us from a miserable life of sin.
We didn't realize how miserable we were, and we were
living in sin until we got saved and turned our
backs on the world and started walking in the light
(47:24):
of the Word of Jesus Christ. Then we looked back to, Oh,
my God, how could I have ever done such a thing,
How could I ever have gone to such a place,
How could I have had such an attitude like that?
And to start looking ugly to us the things that
we used to do, because now we are a new
creature and we do not want to do anything to
(47:47):
bring an insult unto our Lord and save in Jesus Christ.
Jesus was and still is the gift of God of
amazing grace. The second some kind of grace is sustaining grace.
Sustaining grace. Let me look at Second Corinthian chapter twelve
(48:10):
and verse nine. There the word declares, and he said
the unto me, my grace is sufficient for thee. For
my strength is made perfect in weakness. Know that it
is the gift of God's amazing grace that enables us
(48:31):
to bear every versen, to endure every suffering, and to
come through every trial and tribulation encounter in our lives.
This is grace with God. According to First Peter, chapter two,
(48:53):
verses nineteen and twenty, and there it reads, but this
is a fact worthy if a man of conscious the
war God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
Speaker 3 (49:12):
For what glory is it?
Speaker 2 (49:15):
If when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall
take it patiently, see that vanity. But if when ye
do well and suffer for it, ye take it patiently.
That is acceptable with God. Because that's why Jesus was
(49:35):
accepted on the cross by the Father, even after he
had taken on sins, because he hadn't done anything wrong.
Speaker 4 (49:41):
He took on the sin of others.
Speaker 2 (49:45):
He did the right thing. But man ain't kind wanted
to take a lot for the wrong reasons, just because
he was doing the right thing, something that they could
not do. That brought jealousy and envy into their hearts. Yes,
Jesus came for that purpose. But we may look at
the reasoning why a man thought they was putting him
(50:07):
on the cross. It was because of their ivy and
because of their jealousy of Jesus Christ. But he was
doing that which was right. And even though he had
taken on the sin of the word. So the father
and he looked at his son on the cross, he
saw the sin that he had taken on from the
(50:30):
world that he was. The Father turned his faith away
from his from him, not that he was turning his
faith away from Jesus, but he was turning his faith
away from sin Oh hot Lujah. I hope you're getting
that on tonight. When we look at the third form
(50:52):
of grace, it is called as showed Greece. Special grace
is demonstry ready in the gifts that God has entrusted
to each of his children. According to Ephesian chapter four
and verse seven, it is declared, but unto every one
(51:15):
of us is given grace according to the measure of
the gift of Christ. Now, however, when we look at this,
Paul continues to emphasize these special gifts. He verses eleven
and twelve, saying this, and he gave some apostles, and
(51:39):
some process and some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers.
Why for the perfecting of the saints, for the work
of ministry, for the edifying of about it of Christ.
(52:00):
So the gifts were given to whoever God shows to
give them to with a purpose, not just to walk
around and parade yourselves around, ourselves around as though we
were better than somebody, because we had a title of
a gift that was given unto us. But it means
you got these gifts because you got to go to work.
(52:21):
There is something that I'm expecting it from you. You got.
I gave you these gifts because I can trust you
to use these gifts for the work of the ministry,
for the perfection of the saints, and for the edifying
of the Body of Christ. That is what we're supposed
to be doing. But are we doing it or already
is walking around and collecting somebody great? Because we all
(52:44):
have an official gift that God gave unto us. We
live by faith because of the promises of God's word
and through consistent prayer and meditation, recognizing that in order
for the Holy Spirit of the gift of God's amazing
(53:07):
grace through strengthen us and bring victory over every negative
situation or dematica tact, we as believer, we must entrust
our lives into the hands of Almighty God and totally
(53:30):
surrender to Jesus Christ as our personal savior, believing with
assurance that He is able to provide our every need
along with providential protection in the midst of the enemies.
Speaker 4 (53:50):
I redarts.
Speaker 2 (53:52):
It is a gift of God's amazing grace through Jesus
Christ that makes all say not some things, not most things,
but that makes all things possible for them that chooses
to believe. Is very now a blast scripture that I'm
(54:17):
gonna be, and it's going to be in the closing.
It's the apex of God's amazin't grace men, that it's
the highest form of grace that we have been given.
And we'll find that in John chapter three, verse sixteen
(54:38):
and seventeen. And there Jesus himself declared the greatest gift
of God's amazing grace. There's himself. Jesus says, for God.
Speaker 4 (54:53):
So loved the world that ye gave is only be.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Gotten son, that whoso ever believeth in him.
Speaker 4 (55:06):
Should not perish, but have ever lasting life.
Speaker 2 (55:11):
And all let us look at the grace, the amazing
grace of God in verse seventeen. For God sent not
his son into the world to condemn the world, but
that the world through him might be saved. All this
is the apex, the highest paulton, that the highest degree
(55:35):
of God's amazing grace that can be bestowed upon mankind.
Speaker 4 (55:40):
And it was when his son Jesus came into this world.
Speaker 2 (55:44):
And he didn't even come into the world to even
judge us for the way that we were living. She
didn't come into the world to judge us because we
were not recognizing and honoring his father. She did not
come into the world to judge that condemned us because
we did not show and the love towards him, his father,
or for one another. But he came into a dying
(56:07):
world of people who did not love the Lord, had
no respect for him, totally just allowed him, did not
acknowledge him for him being who he said he was.
But he came into this world to give his life
away as a gift to us the mankind, that if
(56:31):
we chose us to believe in him and the works
that he did for us at Cabay, the Bible said
that the world through him might be saved. So it
doesn't matter tonight what your lifestyle is. It doesn't matter
what you have done. It doesn't matter what you have
(56:53):
done today, it doesn't matter what your plan to do
in your future. But he said, accept me. I came
into this world to save you. I don't want you
to be lost. That's the amazing grace of our Father God.
Is Jesus our amazing grace. Jesus Christ gave his life
away so that we could have a life to live
(57:17):
and be the daughter for us back.
Speaker 4 (57:19):
To the Father.
Speaker 3 (57:21):
We'll re choose.
Speaker 2 (57:22):
Him, said night, to be our savior. He came to
save us.
Speaker 4 (57:27):
He ain't come to judge and condemn.
Speaker 2 (57:29):
Us because of our sin. Because I don't care how
save we get. There is still some sin in our
life that we need to clean up. Some of us
just gotten a little bit further down the road than
some others. But we're all still working on something. But
since this amazing grace was gifted to us, why not
(57:52):
take advantage of it, kick hold of it and come
out of the ways of the world and get give
our lives to Jesus Christ so that we can live
eternally with him. The amazing grace of God have already
purchased that right for us. We will never turn it
(58:13):
and we are never deserved. Oh, we want to thank
the Lord tonight for this word.
Speaker 4 (58:18):
You want to thank God.
Speaker 2 (58:19):

will changed and somebody is going to be transformed by
this word. On tonight, we want to say thank you
