ABUNDANCE OF GRACE

Text: Romans 5
13 April 2025

ENTERING INTO OUR EASTER MONTH

Let us take time to read and recall the matchless grace of God given to us so abundantly. We must learn never to take the Lord’s grace for granted.

12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned— 

13 (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 

14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 

15 But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many. 

16 And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification. 

17 For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)     Romans 5:12-17
