"But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus."
BUT GOD! This passage begins with these two life altering words. A couple of sentences later the author (Apostle Paul) reminds us that it is ONLY through GOD's grace that we can experience HIS mercies and blessings.
The late Rusty Goodman wrote a song called "Had it not been". Had JESUS not paid my debt on Calvary, "then forever my soul would be lost"!
GOD's grace enables us to experience life in and through HIM! Our salvation is all about GOD's grace. Nothing we have done (Ephesians 2:8-10) would have measured enough.
BUT GOD!!!
