In a repeat broadcast on Turning Point television this week, Dr. David Jeremiah presents one of the best sermons that I have ever heard! At the beginning of the program, some actors did a skit about how they thought that calling oneself a "wretch like me" in the song "Amazing Grace" was "too harsh" and "offensive." The illustration that was done via the skit was excellent! It really puts the truth to the test that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
This week's television broadcast:
The Compassionate Plan of Grace. [Note: go to the website and click on "Watch Now This Week's Broadcast."]
Some people don’t believe they’ve sinned, and others think they’ve sinned too much to ever be saved. Once we acknowledge we’ve sinned, the next step is to realize that God’s redemption is free. We can’t earn it or work for it. If we could, it wouldn’t be free—and wouldn’t be by grace.
Captured by Grace
ABOUT THE CURRENT TELEVISION SERIES
Some people who have been Christians for many years aren’t clear on the difference between mercy and grace. Grace is receiving what we don’t deserve, while mercy is not receiving what we do deserve. We don’t deserve salvation, but grace saves us. We do deserve judgment, but mercy spares us.
Captured by Grace is all about the multifaceted jewel of grace. It will open up vistas of grace you may be unfamiliar with. Most Christians know they were saved by grace, but are not aware that they live by grace. Nor do they know that grace is the pathway leading them to their heavenly home for eternity. Grace is the past, present, and future of the Christian experience.
Have you been Captured by Grace? Even if you’re thankful for the grace that saved you, there may be more grace yet to be experienced. In this study guide, Dr. David Jeremiah reveals the less-familiar aspects of grace, such as its plan, power, promise, and prospect—as well as the paradox of grace. If your Christian life is not what you know it could and should be, it may be lacking grace.
Discover why grace is more than a blessing at mealtime. It’s the source of every blessing you enjoy.
