My take on grace

Submitted by David S. (United States), Sep 3, 2006 at 21:00

One of the feature parts of my belief in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit lies in the final words of Jesus on the cross. After enduring every conceivable emotion known to man while praying in the Garden of Gethsemani, and then on the cross; He then said, "It is finished". The very core of Christianity lies in these words. At the utterance of these words God through his Son Jesus ushered in the new word of grace. Grace is the unearned and unconditional love that God has for us and that He wants us to share with others. I find nothing confusing abot this concept. What is so hard for many is that they refuse to believe they deserve it.
