2 | Mercy Grace and Forgivness the differenc | Eph 2:8 | Totallypostal84 | 182314 | ||
Grace is God's favor revealed to man through Christ. It is a free act no more hindered by sin than it is conditioned upon works. Mercy is God's active compassion towards us through Christ in relieving our misery. Forgiveness is God's acceptance of Christ's payment for our sin and giving us a pardon which frees us from our debt. All three are interconnected and intertwined so that we as believers can't receive one without the other. All are freely given through belief in the death, burial, and ressurection of the Son, Jesus Christ. We can only dwell in them. Ephes.4:32 You will notice that the Amplified version adds the word "your" in front of faith. I believe that the faith that is being refered to here comes from Jesus Christ which is given to us in order that we may believe. In a sense it is ours but the source is not ourselves but Christ. Romans 3:22 is translated in some bibles as "faith of Jesus Christ". |
