What Is Grace? Love Before You Clean Up

From YouTube

Description

If you have been cancelled before you were forgiven, or judged before anyone understood you, you may be asking what grace is and whether it is real for you. Romans 5:8 says God showed his love by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners, before any of us cleaned up. Grace reaches you first, makes you right with God, and then keeps changing you for the rest of your life. In this sermon, Pastor Kaloma Smith of UAMEZ Church in Palo Alto, California preaches on Romans 5:8 and walks through the verse phrase by phrase, starting with the words "But God." Questions this sermon answers What is grace in the Bible? It is God's love that moves first and reaches you while you are still a sinner, so you receive it instead of earning it. What is God's grace in the Methodist tradition? Prevenient grace gets to you first, justifying grace makes you right with God, and sanctifying grace changes you from the inside out.
