“The Word
became a human being; we are his address; he resides in us! He captivates our
gaze! The glory we see there is not a religious replica; he is the authentic
begotten son. The glory
(that Adam lost) returns in fullness! Only
grace can communicate truth in such complete context! He is the source of
our completeness.
Grace
against grace!
(Garin anti garitos, grace undeserved. Grace
prevailed against the tide of darkness due to Adam’s fall. His fullness is
the source of all that grace communicates as our portion, against all odds!) Against
the stark backdrop of the law, with Moses representing the condemned state of
mankind, Jesus Christ unveils grace and
truth!” (John 1:14b, 16, 17, The Mirror)
”Love and Grace give truth its voice.
The conversation that truth inspires creates the atmosphere wherein growth is
both spontaneous and inevitable. The whole person is addressed in Christ who is
the head of the body; he is the conclusion of God’s communication with man.” (Ephesians
4:15, The Mirror)
1:7 “Since
we are (fully represented) in him, his blood is the ransom that secures our
redemption. His forgiving us our sins measures the wealth of his grace. 1:8 This
grace shown towards us communicates a wisdom and discernment of our worth that
completely surpasses any definition. 1:9 The secret is out! His cherished
love-dream now unfolds in front of our very eyes.” (Ephesians 1: 7-9, The
Mirror)
All of these magnificent gifts are
ours by way of Grace! “How great is the grace of God.” Father’s love gives the
truth of Grace its voice.
Grace! What
a declaration! What an unanswerable question that beckons a life long journey
of seeking, searching, researching and being utterly amazed at how little we
have yet discovered. Instead, we are left amazed by the moment by moment
assaults it brings of authentic indescribable love.
Grace; 5
letters that explode into countless possibilities and experiences of help and hope.
Grace seems to be right on the edge of heresy! And for the religionist, it is! Grace
is so good, it defies comprehension or explanation. It seems surreal or even to
be a ‘Divine Conspiracy’ that appears to skirt our senses/judgments of right or
fair. Grace compensates all the servants with the same wage, no matter when
they arrived on the scene.
Grace is
centered and anchored in the character of a Sovereign Loving God. It overtakes
sin, failure, hopelessness and death. It surprises the recipient with
forgiveness and innocence. It never rests and always flows from the Abba echo
in Heavenly Father’s heart toward any and all who would dare take Him up on it!
Grace is a
conversation with Jesus that plumbs the depths of knowing and being known in
secure safety! Grace opens the human heart to the discovery of identity,
purpose, worth, destiny and restored innocence.
Grace! Do
you dare partner with Grace in a journey into the endless dimensions of Christ’s
Kingdom? Do you have the audacity to attempt life without Grace? Do you have
the spiritual courage to believe the claims of Grace in the face of the
challenges of the Goliath’s of religious taunting?
Grace is
calling this generation like never before! What is your answer to Grace?
Embracing
the Love that Gives the Truth of Grace its Voice! Ron Ross
