Once For All

Got air?

Ephesians 2:8 — “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God” [BSB]

Adding insult to injury

Christ has redeemed us once for all

Once and for all we were bought with a price. Let us learn to be on the watch for anything — and everything — that tries to rob us of living in God’s grace and mercy. He made us to be His children. What a glorious calling!

How much work does it take to trust He will supply air today? Is it really so much more difficult to trust His grace is sufficient, too? The Lord is an ever-present help in times of need. “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith …” 

The Bible certainly speaks of “works” and how we fit in with them. For example, Ephesians 2:10 tells us “… we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.” [BSB]

2 Corinthians 9 — “… God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in every way, always, having all sufficiency, you may abound in every good work.” [BLB]

We can be confident the Lord will help us do our good part to see that this prayer, this decree — “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” gets advanced while we are breathing His good air.

Let it be a song in our hearts that the Lord has made us to be salt and light in this world — and that, as dear children we can always trust Him, His grace and the perfect salvation He gave us once for all.
