“The Grace of God” Titus 2:11-15
Dr. George Ragsdale, Pastor
West Marion Baptist Church, Morriston (Ocala), Florida

When the early Christians looked at what God had done for men, they had to add a deeper and much richer meaning to the word “Grace.” Therefore, grace became the favor of God showed upon men - men who did not deserve His favor. Grace became the kindness and love that God freely gives to His enemies. No other word so expresses the depth and riches of the heart and mind of God.
*God’s grace is not Earned. It is something completely Undeserved and Unmerited.

Ephesians 2:8-9
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

*God’s grace is the Free Gift of God. God extends His grace toward man.

Romans 3:24
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 2:4-5
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

*God’s grace is the Only Way man can be saved.

Romans 5:15
But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

1 Corinthians 1:4
I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

2 Corinthians 8:9
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

Therefore we conclude that “Grace” means all the favors and gifts of God. All the good and perfect gifts of God. All the good and beneficial things He gives us and does for us, whether physical, material, or spiritual.

James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
