You and I know that the world of religion
has portrayed God as heartless and
untouchable. I remember a song from
many years ago titled, "God's Gonna
Getcha for That."
1
If God were out to
"getcha," then you'd already be "got." If
we got what we deserved, we would all
be in hell. Oh, thank God for His
wonderful grace!
What is He really like? What is the truth
about Him? The simple answer to these
questions is: "Look at Jesus." Jesus
said, "He that hath seen me hath seen
the Father" (John 14:9). In John 1:14,
the apostle said,
The word grace in that verse comes
from the Greek word charis, which
means "that which affords joy, pleasure,
delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness,
goodwill, lovingkindness and favor."
14 AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH,
AND DWELT AMONG US, (AND WE
BEHELD HIS GLORY, THE GLORY AS OF
THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER,)
FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH.
