Grace Appeared To All Men
Christmas is the celebration of many things but until recently I have never considered it to be the Celebration of Grace. Titus 2:11 says “For the grace of God (that brings salvation) has appeared to all men.” Who is the one who appeared? It was none other than the baby Jesus, God’s grace coming to us in human flesh. John 1:14 also confirms this saying, “The word became flesh…He came from the Father… full of grace and truth.”
Then Grace Died So Grace Could Be Offered To All Men
If the one full of grace had not died for us grace could not have been offered to all of us. I tell athletes grace is forgiveness + a gift. Just some of the gift given to us when grace is offered is: Heaven, the Holy Spirit with in us, Eternal Peace with God, a Spiritual Gift, an Eternal Spiritual Family, and an Inheritance and Mansion waiting for us. Wow! But also let us not forget the right to suffer for His Name’s sake on this earth.
When Does This Grace Offered Truly Become Ours?
When we believe!
I pray this Christmas if you do not yet believe you soon will!
God Bless!
