Take the grace test
A few weeks ago someone asked me, “how well did you understand grace before you understood grace?” Now it’s time for me to ask you that same question; how well do you understand grace?
Below is a very simple test to find out. Because this is a grace test, I’ve filled in the perfect answer on your behalf…


i think i must have a block in my brain. why oh why can’t i get it?
Hey, I passed! A++ …even before youu filled in the answers
is it truly that simple?
Yes Kat, it is. The good news is only good because God is good. We would not be forgiven, redeemed, justified, healed, blessed, or anything, except that God is good. All of these gifts are only good, because the One who gives them is good.
Without the grace of Christ, the sinner is in a hopeless condition; nothing can be done for him; but through divine grace, supernatural power is imparted to the man and works in mind and heart and character. It is through the impartation of the grace of Christ that sin is discerned in its hateful nature and finally driven from the soul temple. It is through grace that we are brought into fellowship with Christ, to be associated with Him in the work of salvation. Faith is the condition upon which God has seen fit to promise pardon to sinners; not that there is any virtue in faith whereby salvation is merited, but because faith can lay hold of the merits of Christ, the remedy provided for sin. Faith can present Christ’s perfect obedience instead of the sinner’s transgression and defection. When the sinner believes that Christ is his personal Saviour, then according to His unfailing promises, God pardons his sin and justifies him freely. The repentant soul realizes that his justification comes because Christ, as his Substitute and Surety, has died for him, is his atonement and righteousness.
