Grace and Mercy paid the Price for you and I

It was the nails in his hands, or the nails in his feet.
That kept him on the cross, but the love of God for you and I.
manifesting itself in grace and mercy.

In the book of Acts 4:33 "And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of
the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all."

The apostle Peter observed that believers are to be ministering our
"gift" to one another as "good stewards of the manifold grace of God"
1 Peter 4:10. The words for "gift" and "grace" are very closely
related. "Grace" is the most frequent translation for the Greek word
charis, and charisma is most often rendered "gift."

"The working of his mighty power" Ephesians 1:19 appears to be "the
manifestation of the Spirit" 1 Corinthians 12:7 displayed among
God's people by means of the gifts that the Holy Spirit has graced us
with. Paul's ability to minister was "according to the gift of the
grace of God given unto him, Paul by the effectual working of his
power" Ephesians 3:7.

Thus, when we preach the gospel, we are using "the power of God unto
salvation" Romans 1:16. When our lives radically change in response
to the "new man" created in us by God, we do so by "the grace of our
Lord" which is "exceeding abundant with faith and love" 1 Timothy
1:14. When we access the strength to rise above our infirmities or
difficult circumstances, we experience that the Lord's "grace is
sufficient for thee…. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me" 2 Corinthians
12:9.

"And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in
knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are
excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of
Christ. Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by
Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God" 


It was justice that demanded that we die for your sins.
For that is the wages of sin death.  but it was Grace and Mercy
that stepped in and said we shall pay the price for man kind.
Your sin debt is covered under the blood of Christ, let us each
day rise up oh men and women of God and praise the Lord our God
for we were bought with a price.  That none of us could pay.
