Grace Thoughts on Oneplace.com

It is vitally important when we hear the Word of God being taught, or read, or studied - that we always hear it or read it through the lens of grace. The scriptural ideal of life is beyond man's ability to live it. Matthew 5:28-20 points to an impossible life. We cannot live life at this level; we need help, and we need GRACE.

On most occasions banquets were offered to close friends and family. It was not casual; there was great honor in throwing the banquet - and being invited to the banquet. The seeming worthy, the religious, acceptable and respected by men refused the invitation to feast with the King. The Host wants anyone who wants to be there to come! This is a parable of extravagent grace. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/614/29?v=20251111

God is extravagant in His love, in His grace and in His mercy towards us. He will lay down His life for those who despise Him. He will go the extra mile. How we think is not how He thinks. God is not bound by race, culture or offense. His nature is to love, accept and affirm. It always has been - and always will be.

We need help changing the way we think about God, ourselves and others. We have to untangle our often life-long religious concepts and images of God - produced from a fallen human heart - and the only way to do that is to replace these erroneous concepts with truth. Whatever you have done, no matter how bad we may deem it to be, Salvation has come to you through Jesus Christ.

"What is God Like?" is the title of a children's book, as well as a question that most humans have asked themselves at some point in their lives. The problem is people have equated religion as to what God is really like. Religion has often, although not always, failed to bring to its followers a full and correct image of the God they worship. It is often reduced to an outward behavioral practice, missing the heart of the one they are trying to offer.

I have never heard of a church that said they have enough volunteers. I have had hundreds of people volunteer is 30 years of ministry, some a lot, some a little. I have seen many be truly blessed and built up in their faith, find their place in the body of Christ and get deeply blessed by being a blessing with others. I have also seen people get wounded, discouraged, frustrated, angry, temperamental, judgmental and territorial as a volunteer. What diseases can infect the heart of a volunteer?

It is important to be settled in how we understand God's Grace. Don't be content in life until you have realized God's portion of grace, and don't be discontented by the fact he might not have gifted you as you would like to be gifted. Greatness has nothing to do with church accomplishments, titles or positions. It has everything to do with faithfulness to the Lord and a constant, persistent endeavor for a deeper walk with him.

"Thank God that in the moment when someone has been crushed seemingly beyond help, when the things that he has cherished most in life have crashed around him, and he is left in the shattered wreck of what once he thought was a home, the Lord Jesus holds out His hand to aid. Thank God, He takes the clay that has been marred, the precious, soiled, broken life, and molds it again, now into a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the Master's use. And He says, 'From this moment onward the Lord thy God is thy inheritance.'" (Redpath) To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/614/29?v=20251111
