God made a pagan king a member of heaven’s family by grace alone. We, too, become members of God’s family by faith in his grace alone.

It is important for us to remember that speaking for God should humble us before we seek to humble others.

God is good all the time because his Son took all the punishment we deserve.

Now that we are new creations, we realize that God’s grace is not our license to sin but Christ’s release from its guilt and power.

Do not believe that your sin is greater than God’s grace. Jesus died to reconcile his enemies to God.

Grace is not a license to sin; it is strengthening the heart for godly service out of love for a sacrificial Savior.

Jesus’ dying gift closed the distance between us and God, reconciling us so that we would treasure his love and live for him!

Any other claim on the blessings of God’s covenant is an empty sham of religious ritual or personal conceit.

No matter what’s happening in your life, God assures you that he knows and is in charge of every detail.

We have been called into the marvelous light of God’s eternal love. And, if the Creator of the universe loves you, you must really be something!
