I just want to really thank God For sending his son Jesus to die for my sins it 's because of his blood that I am safe in his arms,he love me that much. Because couldn 't been sleeping in my grave right now. But to God be all the GLORY.

Jesus redeemed us on the cross because of his love and his mercy. We are now save by Grace. The Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is suffecient enough to us to bless us and give us life in abundance. Thanks be to Jesus for sheding us his precious blood. Amen

We can 't gain salvation on our own, no matter how noble our works are. Salvation is a gift from Jehovah God given to those who put faith in the sin-atoning value of the sacrifice of his Son.

I just spent two weeks at olive viiew hospital in the Los Angeles area and I am schizophrenic. I stood in my own urine for over four days, they figured I was too out of it to notice. I wasn 't. The only thing that comforted me was knowing that wherever I stand. Jesus Christ stands with me. Even when Paul was in prison, he wrote gods word because Christ was in him, and with him. Yes I knew I was standing in my urine but Paul still had Christ in him and because of my salvation I had Christ I 'm me too. Never forget that fact. Because someday it may save your heart,

Jesus loves will endures forever, his love and mercy will always follow us, we are now live because of Jesus forgiveness and by saving us by destroying the works of the defeated devil. Jesus loves us so much that we cant imagine. We must obey Jesus commandments until rapture coz Jesus doesnt want to bless us only but our soul must be save. Trust Jesus forever in our lives. Jesus loves you and he will never ever leave you nor forsake you

Gracious GOD, thank you for the gift of salvation that comes to us through faith.

I thank GOD for the free gift of faith by GRACE AMEN

this of course is referring to Satan the Devil. He is the prince of the power of the air. He broadcasts his attitude to mankind like a tv signal transmits over the airwaves directly to the tv set. the same way he got to Eve. he caused Eve to doubt God. It was all very subtle. He put doubts in her mind.

Love daily scriptures

Hello fellow believers.....God, has made us free from the world through his Son, to make one out of two for His habitat,a dwelling place for his spirit even in Christ by his grace through our faith. Amen

EPHESIANS 2:8 COMMENTS 3 31 2015 11:40 PM Yea, we believed by the grace of God through our faith unto the Lord Jesus Christ, we are saved. For it is the gift of God that given to us. ROMANS 3:24, 10:9-11. Thank you Lord for the abundance grace that none can be measure. A-men.

Yes. Epsesians chapter 2 is telling all saints that we have direct access to God through Jesus. God had informed true beleivers that we are of one spirit with Christ in Him through His holy word teachings and act of faith thriught obedience. God has reminded us that we are no longer strangers to Him because Hos son Jesus openly defeated the enemy through the shedding of His precious blood upon the cross. God has spoken that we all were once walking according to the spirit of darkness as the same one which operates in the children of disobedient today.

Donnies ephesians ch 2 yes yes yes,everything we need is Jesus Christ. no more.People want to add the doctrines baptism and all the other things that was for the jews before Christ died. Jesus for filled the laws and doctrines.and said believe in me and you will be saved.

Daryll, Thorugh rentance, baptism, and receiving the Holy Spirit ? Salvation comes by one placing their failth souly in Jesus Christ and his work and at the moment we do this by faith we are baptized into the body of Christ by the Holy Spirt and everyone who receives Jesus Christ, receives the Holy Spirit ! The dispensation of grace the church age does not need to be intangled with the doctrines of baptism or any other sacrement... Everything we need is in the Person of Jesus Christ !

Through repentance, baptism in Jesus name, and receiving the holy Spirit which we are sealed with His name in our foreheads yes we are saved by Grace.

I think he is talking about making believers of Christ one in him. The enmity he speaks of is the one we inherited in the fall when He said there would be enmity. Between God and man. He took an polished that enmity . Those making peace. There was ever ever peace until Christ did this. Jesus made peace removing the enmity.praise God !

IT IS BY GRACE THAT WE ARE SAVED,AND GRACE IS A GIFT UNTO US THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.

This Verse show that eternal life with Christ is a gift: one we can not buy or even work for and like a gift all we have to do is reach out and take by faith depending on Christ alone and Christ only- for he died for us all that we might have life more abundantly through Christ Our Lord.

Salvation comes from God and him alone through his own son Jesus to all who repent from their sins and forsake all and from your heart believes and trust in his power to keep is saved by grace through faith.

This was a blessed nation who received gods grace without deserving the favour the same might happen to as long as we are prepared to walk in his footsteps

Joni, I totally agree with you, i.e. "...We don 't have a license to sin just because we are in Christ. ... We have to fight like you said and never take our eyes off Jesus. Satan wants us to focus on our past mistakes... " Joni, my present situation is one eagerly searching for the "meat " of God 's Word and understanding how to apply this to my present situation. This appears to be totally different from the "milk " of the Word in that it invites a NEW EXISTENCE. I find learning about Jesus, the Holy Ghost and our Heavenly Father easy compared to bringing myself under the influence of these in a manner that actually changes who I am...This is a daily struggle for me at this time and satan does not leave any stone unturned in his attempts to thwart my efforts, often using myself against myself...Oh how I wish I saw myself clearly as God sees me and I long so much for clarity as to my imaginings and my desires as to whether they be "vain " or "to consume upon my own lusts "....I am so often questioning myself...

Motdaugrnd. Your answer to Ron was more complete than mine. I didn 't mean to imply that it was okay to sin and ask for forgiveness. We don 't have a license to sin just because we are in Christ. 40 years ago, when I was a new believer I knew all my sins had been forgiven. I longed for the sincere milk of the Word and grew in Christ. We have to fight like you said and never take our eyes off Jesus. Satan wants us to focus on our past mistakes. God wants us to always repent, ask for forgiveness, live in Christ 's righteousness and rest in Him at the same time. Bible study and prayer is so important because the world, obligations, etc. want to keep us from living for Christ and praising Him.

God is good. God is loving kindness. God is tender mercies. God is full of compassion. God is full of grace. Praise and thank Him for He has given us His begotten Son, Jesus. Peace be to everyone that believe in the name of Jesus and rest in His finished work at the cross.

Ron, God indeed forgives us our sins. This does not mean we are without a sinful nature. This old world continuously invites us to follow the ways of our flesh and sometimes it seems we need to do this just to survive thus, we give into such temptation. It is not an easy road to travel spiritually when living in such a world. However, we can get the strength from God that we need to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit and overcome our sinful nature...step by step. God sees our hearts, knows our minds and has already given us the victory thru His Son, Jesus. This does not mean we have nothing to do because He, also, gave us free-will. We make DAILY choices that can strengthen us spiritually or weaken us spiritually. So, in answer to your question, i.e. "If Christ died for all my sins,how many do I have left to repent of? " THOSE WE CONTINUE TO HOLD ONTO.

Faith according to Hebrews 11:1 is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen and Rom.1:17 the just shall live by faith and Rom.12:3 last line God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith and 2Cor.10:15 middle Paul says "when your faith is increased "..... Rom.10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God...... now Eph.4:7 but unto every one of us is given Grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ 4:8 wherefore he saith, when he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men..... Rom.12:6 says " having then gifts differing according to the Grace that is given to us, whether prophesy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith. i believe today we are all parts of one body to use our gifts for the edifying of the body of Christ.....

Ron, Jesus died for all the sins you will ever do. Otherwise, you would be whisked away to Heaven the moment you were baptized into His death by water immersion. Read the book 1 John. Only 5 chapters. When we sin, we ask God to forgive us and His blood cleanses us from all unrighteousness. We are servants of righteousness not sin and Christ made us free from sin. Romans 5:16-21. I heard once to read 9 verses before a key verse and nine verses after. I think that is a rough estimate. Since we are made free from sin, there should be far more joy than we see in Christians today.
