do you know how precious it is... to receive the holy spirit, unmerit favoured it's not deserved... but yet still God gave his grace to sinners! the feeling is so overwhelming... i was just listening this song and thought to myself i should make this..a gift of eternal life... to sinners who don't deserve it, isn't God great or not... Wow. grace thought my heart to feel... and love, love of God is such a supernatural thing... can we just give him some praise?

[h=3]Ephesians 2:8[/h]King James Version (KJV)

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:




[h=3]John 6:44[/h]King James Version (KJV)

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.



isn't that incredible... we didn't choose God he choose us who have received him.. words can't explain that

Isn't is absolutely wonderful, Josh. If we had to be perfect in order to live with the Lord, we couldn't do it. If there was no power higher than we are, it would be terrible. But God has the power to give us forgiveness, to save us from death, and we have such a loving God He extends that offer to anyone who accepts it through repentance of sin. It is awesome.

Think! of the people who do not take our Savior up on His offer to cleanse them of their sins, and think they are perfectly capable of that without God! They are under sin, not grace, for they have no grace.

I also feel sorry for the many people who think that because they are under grace, they need not listen to what God calls sin, so they can know what they need to be cleansed from. They say it simply comes to them because they have the Holy Spirit, without checking it out with the Lord in His words. They have absolute faith in themselves as hearing only God, even though they live in this world so they don't have to check with God. I have heard them say that because they have grace, they don't need to!! Some say God went back on all His words explaining sin, God was sorry He told us about sin. I think it is grace, not us, it is God in power, not us.

So I thank my blessed Savior.

Yes and not only has He freely given His Spirit as a surety (down payment), but also as a seal of our salvation, an Illuminator of His Word, a comforter, our Advocate, an empowerer, Baptizer into His Life, Gift Giver...ahh, the list is endless, what a Glorious and Free salvation He has placed us into.
