The Meaning of Grace!

Good Morning! Sorry about yesterday, but I'm having car problems. Some of you might say, This might be a consequence of the sin I committed. Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we go on sinning so that Grace may increase. Oh! And by the way thank you all for your comments and support on my text the other day. Everyone was so supportive. Except for some who I think that just because they have a Theology degree they know exactly what the Bible is telling us. But all I can go by is what the Word and Spirit tells my heart when I read it. And today I'm going to tell you what the Meaning of Grace is to me. The other day I used the Vs about he who has no sin cast the first stone. And it was brought to my attention what Jesus said to the woman who committed Adultery later. He said, Go and sin no more! Now Jesus being God, had to know this woman would NEVER sin again. If this was so He could tell us all not to sin again and He would have never had to go to the Cross. But that is the problem, we are sinners everyday in Thought, Word and Deed. Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying that we can deliberately just go around living our lives in sin and not face consequences for them. But that same Grace that forgives me of them, is the same Grace that helps me get through them. In 1John 2:12 He tells us, I write to you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of His name. It doesn't say some of your sins, or these ones here are, but those there aren't. It says all. I believe just as Jesus told that woman "Go sin no more!" He tells us that everyday. But He knows we can't live up to it. Meaning of Grace: And that is where Grace and Mercy step in. Sometimes I think to much Theology is not a good thing. We miss the SIMPLE Truths behind Gods Word and Gods Love for us. And it can make us sin by being Judgemental. Because today I want to share the Real meaning of Grace. Alot of you never knew me when I was using or living that lifestyle. And some of you do and where worse than I was. So you know where I am coming from. But let me tell you, I have done some things in my life that some of you could not even think about doing. I have done things in my life that if I told some of you, you may not act it at first, but afterwards you would probably try and avoid me where ever we were. And some of those things some people have still never forgiven me. Maybe you have some things like that. But let me tell you one thing I do know is God forgives me. In Heb 8:12 He says, "For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." and here's one from 1John 3:20 Whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and He knows everything. My heart was condemning me for what I had done, but God is telling me His Grace is bigger than that, and that guilt has no room there. So today I feel good because of Gods Grace because He knows my heart and He knows I am striving to do the right thing in His eyes. So today if you can go and sin no more. My hat is off to you. And I hope your not deceiving yourself by thinking you can. Me! I can only do my best not to. But when I do and you should grab a hold of this concept and truth. When we do sin, Gods Grace and Mercy is there. It came in the form of a man named Jesus Christ. And He came not to condemn us but to save us. If you notice Grace and Guilt both start with the same letter. Which one do you want to feel today? HABD!
