As Paul challenges us to embrace God’s grace in our ministries (all Christ-followers have them), he also reminds us that this grace does not guarantee us an easy life. In fact, God uses hardships and trials to demonstrate that His grace is sufficient for us – that no matter what challenges we face, His grace empowers us to persevere and remain faithful.

Paul's greeting is inclusive. 1. To the Greeks, he used the word "grace." 2. To the Hebrews, he used the word "peace." He used both words so no group would be excluded.
The traditional greeting in the Hellenistic world was chairein which simply meant "Greetings!" which all the Greeks knew. Paul used chairs, a form of the word that means "grace." In other words, Paul added "grace to you" to the familiar Greek greeting. That went beyond the traditional greeting to one that was for his Christian Greek audience. Grace...
Just as grace was to the Greek listeners, Paul added to the traditional Jewish greeting, "shalom" which means "peace" Paul was Jewish. Therefore, he was very familiar with the Hebrew greeting of just the word shalom,but he added more to it to keep it from being just a vague greeting. The peace Paul referred to was "inner peace" instead of merely sa...
Have you ever blessed anyone by saying, "Peace and grace be unto you"? If so, the next time, use Paul's habit of being careful to say, "Grace and peace" in that order. Paul mentions grace first, and then peace because peace flows from grace. Without grace, there can be no peace. We receive peace only after we have received grace from God. After all...

Notice that the greeting begins with grace, God's unmerited favor, then mercy, and ends with peace. The order was important to Paul, and it should be important to us ...
Many people believe Paul wrote the Book of Hebrews. However, that particular book does not follow the format, greetings, closing, and so many other things used by Paul in his 13 books of the New Testament. Hebrews is a general epistle written not to a church or to an individual as Paul's books are. There is no salutation that includes the words gra...

Feb 15, 2024 · 1. The first thing grace does is that it brings salvation. Titus 2:11 says, “For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people.” The way God effects salvation is through the atoning work of Jesus on the cross. This is the first thing that grace does. It brings salvation to those who believe and receive. 2.
