Grace The Power To Change Part 3

Grace The Power To Change

Chapter 2

The Grace of Jesus

What 2 things did Jesus show us in His earthly life and how did he accomplish these 2 things?

He showed God to man and He showed what a man full of the power of God could do. He accomplished this by the grace (ability) of God working in Him.

We have this same power and the same amount of grace that Jesus had. We just need to learn how to use that power and grace.

Discuss how the scripture John 14:12, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also” is possible in the Christian life.

We can do the works of Jesus did because He did it all as a man full of the grace of God. We have that same grace (ability). This is why it is important to understand the humanity of Jesus. If we do not believe he became a man, we don’t realize that as a man we can do as he did and greater (scripture: James 1:14, Hebrews 4:15-16, Hebrews 2:18).

How was Jesus able to conquer the desire to sin?

Hebrews 4:16 He went to the Father and received grace (ability) when He was I n need.

What is one of the best ways to learn to live by grace?

Follow the example of Jesus. He was our pattern and example. He showed us what a person yielded to the Spirit could do and be.
