Pure Grace

Dear Friend,The pure gospel of Christ is "His death, burial, and resurrection, by which we are saved." (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) This is the "grace of God that brings salvation," and it "has appeared to all men." (Titus 2:11)There is power in the gospel (Romans 1:16) and it was preached throughout the entire Book of Acts, by Paul, Peter, Stephen, Philip, and all the apostles and disciples. This is the gospel of Christ, the good news of the New Testament. It is a gospel of pure grace. It is pure grace because all God asks of anyone is to believe and receive His Son, and God gives us the faith and ability to believe (Romans 12:3) and moves us to receive the Holy Spirit. (John 6:29; Ephesians 2:1, 5) Salvation is purely by the grace of God through faith in Jesus, for He is the Great Cause of all things, including our salvation.Salvation is 100 percent by the grace of God. There is nothing we have to do or can do, but accept the free gift by receiving God's Son.
