Part 15: What Does Grace Look Like?

Acts 11:19-30

What is grace?

All religions are the same! All religions

are to blame!

Biblical Christianity is entirely different!

What is grace?

God gives away freely

Romans 6:23 The wages of sin in death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 Corinthians 2:12 Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God,

that we might understand the things freely given us by God.

What is grace?

God gives away freely

He freely gave his Son

He freely gives his Spirit

He keeps on giving (freely)!

What does grace look like?

Lives are changed

Romans 6:14 For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

What does grace look like?

Lives are changed

Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to

renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in

the present age.

What does grace look like?

Lives are changed

People are accepted and loved

Jesus is talked about

People are generous with their money

What does grace look like?

2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for

your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.
