Grace is Enough, It Is all you Get “You Get What You Get and You Don’t Throw A Fit”

Statement When someone doesn’t learn to walk in Grace it is a sign of dysfunction, Grace is God’s Plan, anything else is incorrect.

Statement If you are not living by Faith in the Grace and Love of God for us through Christ Jesus, then you are living incorrectly. Stop living incorrectly; doing or living in a way that you know is wrong is called sin, it won’t send you to hell it will just bring much frustration and pain in your life.

Statement I believe that many times God allows us to struggle and fail when dealing with our flesh, not so we can revel in it or enjoy the sin, but so that we will know that without Him we can do nothing. If we get caught up in our sin then it proves our hearts. And our lack of love for God.

Statement When we sin our conviction should not be of our act, but that our love for God was not greater than our love for ourselves. If you sin and only feel bad because you got caught and you now have to face the consequences. Then you are not saved.

Statement If you loved God you would be concerned that you turned away from Him more than that you did something wrong. A child that has a right relationship is more concerned about disappointing there parents and hurting that relationship.

Romans 11 The Remnant of Israel  5 So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. 6And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.[c]

1 Corinthians 15 9For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.

James 4 Submit Yourselves to God  1What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you? 2You want something but don't get it. You kill and covet, but you cannot have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. 3When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.  4You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely?[a] 6But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:    "God opposes the proud       but gives grace to the humble."[b]  7Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
