There are two massive obstacles that have to be overcome before I can enjoy God through Christ as my all-satisfying friend forever. The first obstacle is legal— namely, that God, outside of Christ, is not my friend. He’s my enemy. God is a holy, just, righteous judge who sees me as a guilty sinner. That is the main obstacle that has to be overcome ...
In justification, God pays the debt of our sin through the blood of Christ, cancels our guilt, satisfies his holy wrath against sin, and imputes to us the righteousness of Christ. Now, God is totally for us. Totally merciful to us. He is our friend forever. You could see it in text like Galatians 3:13, which says, “Christ redeemed us from the curse...
Now, what about the second obstacle? The natural mind is hostile to God. He may have overcome his hostility towards us on the cross, but what about our hostility towards him? “The mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God.

Even if you are the chief of sinners, the worst sinner in this world, your sins can be forgiven. But friend, don’t ever forget that the forgiveness of ...
1 Corinthians 15:10. ESV But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. NIV But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet ...
Apr 3, 2006 · Not by agreement and not by contract--but by grace and grace alone. As 19:30 reminded us, with God all things are possible, and especially this work of grace that the last is first. If God extends grace to people at the eleventh hour, and they respond, trusting in His goodness, they will also receive what He promised others.

What does the Bible say about the grace of God?
(Titus 2:11-12) Therefore the person who attains to such a life attains to it only by the grace of God, and not in his own strength. He can truly say, “Everything is by the grace of God.” For the others, the grace of God is in vain. When Abraham and Sarah received Isaac, they could say, “Only by the grace of God.”
