Grace of God !
Justice-Recognition-Salvation
God has loved so much the world that he gave his only begotten son freely so that we may be saved! How can we receive that grace and how can we fail from it is what we are going to see in this book.

Introduction
Many people are being saved, others are already saved but what Jesus did to the cross for our lives! We are going to take like a simulation of a slave who had a dept to his master and must die because he was not able to pay! Like a child who has destroyed his heritage and his father had already given all his children their parts so in justice he deserve nothing for he was given his part! Like an association that helps people to pay their dept and cover their failure! Like architecture and an ingenious at the same time; who plan and builds!

Justice of God!
If we take justice like doing something right, like while going to church you find someone who need one bread to save his life. And if we take sin like you didnt do that and he died .Now it is very serious because you cant go back in time and give him the bread or you cant give him back the life! We have fail righteousness (fail to do what is right ,just ,perfect) Roman3:9-18 we have failed to do what is good at our state of being, like a child who you pay school fees ,you give everything but he dont succeed !
Recognition of sin! And how do we know that there is a sin, it is by law,Romans 7:7 it was the law that showed me my sin. I would never have known that coveting is wrong if the law had not said, "You must not covet."
Good news! Jesus Christ come and died that we may have life and all its fullness! John10:10 "There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus Romans 8:1 "For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 I tell you the truth;no one can see the kingdom of God unless his born again.John3:3 To be born again,God gives us freely righteousness(that doesnt come from our hardworking(strive)!)Roman 3:21-24
How? By accepting the sacrifice and the work of salvation that Jesus did(believing in the gospel.)Ephesians 2:8

Salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ!
Faith can be defined as to have confidence in someone that even if what is telling you seems to be unclear you trust him and what he says.Hebrew 11:1 ; 2 Corinthians 5:7
Not by our mighty (Zechariah 4:6)

My Grace Is Enough for You
But by the grace (the unmerited favor and blessing) of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not [found to be] for nothing (fruitless and without effect). In fact, I worked harder than all of them [the apostles], though it was not really I, but the grace (the unmerited favor and blessing) of God which was with me. - 1 Corinthians 15:10 Amplified Bible
Lamentations chapter 3 says it; The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak [in human strength], then am I [truly] strong (able, powerful in divine strength). 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Amplified Bible

I Want To Do What Is Right, But I Cant And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I cant. I want to do what is good, but I dont. I dont want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. But if I do what I dont want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. Romans 7:18 -21 2 Corinthians 5:17 which says, Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun. Dont you realize that you become the slave of whatever you CHOOSE to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads to death, or you can CHOOSE to obey God, which leads to righteous living. Thank God! Once you were slaves of sin, but now you wholeheartedly obey his teachings we have given you. Now you are free from your slavery to sin, and you have become slaves to righteous living. Romans 6:16-18 If any of you wants to be My follower, you MUST turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow M e. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for My sake, you will sa ve it. Matthew 16:24-25 GIVING US THE DESIRE AND THE POWER TO DO WHAT PLEASES HIM. Philippians 2:13 When we are tempted, He will show us a way out so that we can endure. 1 Corinthians 10:13 We can by the power of the Holy Spirit put to death the deeds of our si nful nature. Romans 8:9, 12-13 So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to Him, the power of the life giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death. Romans 8:1-2 He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. 1 Peter 2:24
Be Strong In the Lord and In His Mighty Power A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Ephesians 6:10

The shelter and the Armor of God
Ephesians 6:10-18 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devils schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lords people.
The shelter
Dont rely on your own strength Ephesians 6:10. Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Proverb 3:4. Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust him, an d he will help you. Psalm 37:5 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7

The truth
Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6 What your life is based on, theory of life do you follow! Jesus said in Matthew 7:24-27 24Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man wh o built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash. This how the truth has a big impact on our daily life, if yo u follow another teacher who is not Christ ,no matter how he is, it can lead you to hell .for we are Jesus s disciple by listen to his word and believe them!
Righteousness
If you walk in flesh surely you follow the world view and the word say in Romans 8:6 So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. The flesh described in the bible is deprive d from three major things of the spirit that God gives us: For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.2Timothy 1:7
Besides, the bible state clearly that anyone who have no these will not enter in the kingdom of Heaven! Revelation 21:8; Galatians 5:19-21

Fool virgins Matthew 25:3
Generation without the fear of God. 1samuel 6:1-15 Worship for a fun 2Timothy3:4-5 instead of worshipping like David who worshipped before God and for God!2Samuel6:21 Jesus said we will be worshipping in spirit and truth John4:25 ,but this generation worshipping by lips but they heart are away from God Matthiew15:8! 1 Timothy 4:1 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Matthew 15:9 They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules. 2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. Jude 1:18They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires."
Hypocrites Matthew 15 :3 ;7-9 3 He answered them,1 And why do you disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition? 7 Hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you when he said, 8 This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me, 9 and they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.

What God says about these two people Isaiah1:2-3;13;18-20
Listen, O heavens,pay attention, O earth! For the LORD speaks:I raised children, I brought them up, but they have rebelled against me! An ox recognizes its owner,a donkey recognizes where its owner puts its food;but Israel does not recognize me,my people do not understand. Do not bring any more meaningless offerings;I consider your incense detestable!Come, lets consider your options, says the LORD.Though your sins have stained you like the color red, you can become white like snow; though they are as easy to see as the color scarlet,you can become white like wool. If you have a willing attitude and obey, then you will again eat the good crops of the land. But if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.Know for certain that the LORD has spoken.
Purifying judgment ! Why do God allows us to be tempted?Why did Christ died?Can I continue to live a Godless life?Do I fall from grace!here,we are going to see some explaination that can help us ! God doesnt love a sin and proud! When we make sin we destroy whether ourselves or others.And when your are proud God resist to the proud! Rigtheousnees by observing the law(proud)! Refusing to accept that we are not able by ourself to observes the law ,for all the law are good and the will stand for ever but we fail them that is the matter and it is the reason why Christ came and when you refuse and seek the righteousness through law ;God will let you pass through the big tribulations to understand that you have fail him!Otherwise in heaven you would say I rich by myself in heaven and heaven is a grace! Roman3:19-26 19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to

God. 20 For no one is declared righteous before him by the works of the law, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin. 21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God (which is attested by the law and the prophets) has been disclosed 22 namely, the righteousness of God through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. 24 But they are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. 25 God publicly displayed him at his death as the mercy seat accessible through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed. 26 This was also to demonstrate his righteousness in the present time, so that he would be just and the justifier of the one who lives because of Jesus faithfulness.
