IN THE GOSPEL EVERYTHING IS RECEIVED BY GRACE
Let us remember that no human being deserves the grace of God since we were all destitute of the glory of God but his love for us was greater than he could not avoid giving us his grace through his son Jesus Christ
John 1:16
Certainly from its fullness we all take, and grace upon grace (Jn 1:16).
(RVR1960)
John affirms through this verse that we all take from its fullness. However, the fact that John affirms that grace comes from its fullness, teaches that this is more than a good disposition or impersonal favor of God, which means that it does not possess or does not manifest any characteristics that refer to personality, ideas or the feelings of a person because God comes with all his provision and power, in our need in the person of Jesus Christ only that when we receive it we must recognize it to honor God in our lives
Likewise, the Bible affirms the following in the verse:
Genesis 6: 8
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord
(RVR1960)
Not all of us have that great privilege of enjoying the grace of our Lord, although we know that no one deserves it but that his love for us is immensely great and he gives us his grace according to his will, for example we can read in this verse that Noah found grace or favor before God because he was a man faithful and obedient to his word
In the same way the bible tells us that Stephen enjoyed that grace of God
Acts 6: 8
Like Stephen, although he was not an apostle, he was full of the grace and power of God, and he performed great wonders and signs among the people.
(RVR1960).
In this sense, as Esteban was full of grace and God's favor, he used it to perform wonders and miracles among the peoples, since his favor accompanied him in everything he did because God gave him a fantastic support because he was also a faithful man and obedient to the word
Surprisingly for many, God calls us from our mother's womb; that is, he chooses us to give us his grace
Galatians 1:15
But God separated me from my mother's womb and called me by her grace, and when it pleased him
(RVR1960).
That is to say, God calls us from it is and it is up to us to accept or reject it, that is why I said at the beginning that not all of us enjoy this great privilege because not all receive it when God grants it, because certainly the grace of it is for all humanity
Accepting God's grace in our lives is a great privilege since it is through God's grace that we can receive the salvation of our souls, his love, mercy, and his blessings</center<.
