P. 27
Repentance from sin
that is getting nearer, will keep us from the presence of sin.
Jesus had no sin in His life and the Bible promises us that we
will know what it is to be like this. 1 John 3 v2 'Dear
friends, now we are children of God and what we will be
has not yet been made known. But we know that when
He appears we shall be like Him...'
JESUS CHRIST WILL GIVE US AN UNSINNING NATURE,
LIKE HIS OWN.
SALVATION is one of the works of God, done on behalf of
mankind but God has also done many other works on our
behalf.
All God's works are done in a particular manner. Just as
when men do deeds in a particular manner, it reveals
something of their characters, so it also is similar with God.
When God performs his works towards mankind, it is
through or by - GRACE.
GRACE
Grace, the means by or through which God works with and
for mankind, the term is used more than 200 times in the
Bible.
It is first spoken of in the Bible's first book, Genesis 6 v8
'Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord' and finally in
the last book, Revelation 22 v21 'The grace of the Lord
Jesus Christ be with you all.'
