The Grace of God
Part of The Ten—Laws of Grace
Exodus 20:1-2
1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
God
toward Israelites first,
they deserved it and in spite of them not deserving it, and He powerfully
them into relationship with Himself.
God
toward us first,
we deserve it and in spite of us not deserving it, and He powerfully
us into relationship with Himself.
- We are enslaved to sin like the Israelites were enslaved to Egypt.
Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin. —John 8:34
- Jesus is the new and better passover lamb.
The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! —John 1:29
- Jesus is the new and better Moses.
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. —John 8:36
- Jesus delivers us into relationship with God.
More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. —Romans 5:11

The grace of God means that we
rather than

If you never do another thing for God, do you
that God’s grace is
for you?
The grace of God means that we
rather than

Do you spend more time thinking about where you
than how Jesus is
for you?
