God Owes Me Nothing...

Nevertheless, remember this important theological point. God gives us everything. He gives us a body, soul, and spirit. He gives us a relationship with Him through faith (that He gives us) in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son. He abides with us by His Holy Spirit. He gives us love—perfect love inrepparttar sense that we freely choose Him or reject Him. He doesn’t want puppets on strings. He created us in His image and likeness—free moral agents, just like Him. He gives us enabling grace to live daily in victory overrepparttar 126401 kingdom of darkness. He gives us joy. He gives us eternal life. He gives. He gives. He gives. All we can do is receive by faith and thank Him. This keeps us in awe as to His Glory.

Let me wrap up this point. God gives us everything that pertains to life and godliness. We can not work for it. We can not work for more of it. We can only rest in His finished and completed work of redemption. Glory to God for His awesome Glory to behold! Go ahead and just thank Him. I am not worthy of His grace. He knows that. He still wants me to have it—without any debt or strings attached. Now that’s grace. Freely given, freely received.

Keeprepparttar 126402 faith. Stayrepparttar 126403 course. Jesus is coming soon. While we wait, enjoy His goodness.

It’s free forrepparttar 126404 asking.

That's not all. As history holds, he isrepparttar 126406 only pontiff that asked for forgiveness, when he said, "let us forgive and ask for forgiveness". Still preaching on his forgiveness message, he said, "our forgiveness should be motivated only byrepparttar 126407 love of God and our belief in his unsurpassed mercy". Sitingrepparttar 126408 Holy Bible, in Ezekiel 36 vs. 24-27, he said, "God's forgiveness can transformrepparttar 126409 stony heart of every human being into a natural heart".
