We welcome you now to a true church perspective with Pastor G. Craig Lewis.

Grace and mercy. The acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Savior means we are saved by His grace. Amen?

Christ's part in our sins. So we should exemplify God's grace by being merciful toward others.

Most of the time, most of the time when we think of God's grace, we think about what he did for us,

having grace for us to come to him or having grace to forgive us our sins and we use grace in that manner

but we never look at it as grace to pass on to someone else being gracious to someone else

forgiving someone else letting them off the hook forever that's what grace is because that's the grace that god has given us amen did he let you

off the hook how many of you he let off the hook forever amen said he cast your sins in the sea

never to remember him again as far as the east is from the west do you know how deep that is

far from the east to the west?

That's a never-ending loop is what it is. That's what it is. And that's how far away he's cast your

sins. He even exemplified it in the Old Testament by putting the sins of the people in a scapegoat

and driving this goat away from the camp, ultimately

over a cliff so that this goat could never be seen again to remind people of their sins.

And that was an illustration of how God forgives us.

That's the grace that he has toward us.

Well, that same grace.

Look at somebody say that same grace.

You have to exemplify that

exact same grace. Yeah, but they did me like this. Grace. My father, I didn't even know him for 10, 15 years.

Grace. How long was it before God knew you?

Come on now.
