Bible Verses About Grace of God

to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved,

in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,

which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,

making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him

in whom also we were assigned an inheritance, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his will;

to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Messiah:

for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

not of works, that no one would boast.

This I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all discernment;

so that you may approve the things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Messiah;

being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Yeshua the Messiah, to the glory and praise of God.

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Messiah Yeshua.

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy;

and the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we also do toward you,

to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Yeshua with all his holy ones.

Therefore leaving the teaching of the first principles of Messiah, let us press on to perfection—not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God,

of the teaching of immersions, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

This will we do, if God permits.

Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,

as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that with it you may grow,

if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:
