"For God so loved the world that he gave his one
and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall
not perish but have eternal life. --John 316
5Journey
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a
great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off
everything that hinders and the sin that so
easily entangles, and let us run with
perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us
fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter
of our faith, who for the joy set before him
endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat
down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Consider him who endured such opposition from
sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and
lose heart. --Hebrews 121-3
6Grace
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling
among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of
the One and Only, who came from the Father, full
of grace and truthFrom the fullness of his grace
we have all received one blessing after another.
For the law was given through Moses grace and
truth came through Jesus Christ. --John
114,15,17
7Grace
This righteousness from God comes through faith
in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no
difference, for all have sinned and fall short of
the glory of God, and are justified freely by his
grace through the redemption that came by Christ
Jesus. --Romans 322-24
8Grace
But because of his great love for us, God, who
is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even
when we were dead in transgressions-it is by
grace you have been saved. And God raised us up
with Christ and seated us with him in the
heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in
the coming ages he might show the incomparable
riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to
us in Christ Jesus...
9Grace
For it is by grace you have been saved, through
faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the
gift of God- not by works, so that no one can
boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in
Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared
in advance for us to do. --Ephesians 24-10
10Christians are on a journey of grace FROM
sinNOT a journey of grace IN sin.
11Freedom
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.
Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be
burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
--Galatians 51
12Freedom
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free
indeed. --John 836
13Freedom
You have been set free from sin and have become
slaves to righteousnessBut now that you have
been set free from sin and have become slaves to
God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and
the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin
is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in
Christ Jesus our Lord. --Romans 618,22,23

and control of sinNOT a journey freeTO sin.

says the LORD Almighty. --Zechariah 46

than all we ask or imagine, according to his
power that is at work within us, to him be glory
in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all
generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
