Good News! Jesus Gives Amazing Grace

Jun 30, 2024    Stephen Rollins

Today, we delve into the profound truth of our need for grace and the incredible revelation of grace through Jesus Christ, as outlined in John 1:1-5, 9-18. Beginning with the tragic fall of humanity in Genesis, where Adam and Eve's disobedience introduced sin and death into the world (Genesis 2:15-17; 3:4-6; Romans 5:12), we recognize the deep-rooted need for divine grace. Despite this, a glimmer of hope is found in God's promise of redemption (Genesis 3:15). This promise comes to fruition in the person of Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh, who dwelt among us and revealed the fullness of God's grace and truth (John 1:1-5, 14). Jesus, the creator and sustainer of all life, brought light into the darkness and offered a way for humanity to be reconciled with God. As we explore these passages, let us embrace the super-abundant grace that flows from Christ, a grace that not only redeems but sustains and transforms us, leading us to eternal life (Romans 5:15-21).
