Both CS Lewis and RC Sproul asked, “If you could boil down take Christian theology and boil it into one word, what would it be?”
Love? Faith? They answered that the one word would be Grace.
Grace is like a huge bank account and faith is the account number to get access to it. God provides the grace, and we respond to it with faith.
Another way to look at it is to contrast 3 words and what they mean:
Grace is something that costs everything for the Giver (Jesus) and nothing for the recipient (you and I).
John 1:14 tells us that, “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, …full of grace and truth.”
Today we’re studying Matthew 20:1-16.
