Grace!

This week, our small group Bible study is on grace! It's about time, as most of the other chapters in the book are very, very convicting!

I love these verses:

Hebrews 4:16 -> "Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in the time of need."

Romans 5:15-17 -> "But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by one man's offense, many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

"And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgement which came from the one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.

"For if by one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ."
