Latin Phrase Friday is upon us. Foedus Gratiae. Simply, the Covenant of Grace. While we were still sinners Christ died for us. People can (and have) argued for decades over social issues, the existence of God, how life got to be here, and a million other things. Two people can be 100% sure of two totally opposite things, and that’s ok. But it all boils down to one thing, what do you say about Jesus? A real person in history that you can really research, that really claimed to be God incarnate on your behalf. All that other stuff comes after this, weather people act like that or not. A real man really lived, really claimed to be God, really died, and really rose from the dead so that YOU and I can be reconciled to God, FOR FREE. This is all researchable, you can collect and analyze this data yourself. You can enter into this free covenant of Grace. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead you will be saved. Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

Latin phrase Friday! This week’s phrase is Sola Gratia and it means Grace Alone. You may notice it looks a lot like last weeks painting and that’s because it’s on the back of the same panel. That’s because these two solas very much go hand in hand. Last week we talked about faith and what that is, the three parts of it (knowledge, ascent, trust). What grace alone essentially says is that no one can get to that third and final stage of faith (trust) without God granting the grace to do so. You cannot muster up the faith, you cannot work hard to gain enough faith, it must be given to you on no account of your own. Since no one is deserving of it, the fact salvation is granted at all is a gracious act. The faith by which we are justified is our faith, but only because our Creator first gave it to us. All those to whom faith has been granted WILL come to exercise it. Regeneration precedes faith, not vice versa. So, the knowledge- Jesus was a real person in history that was fully human and fully God, really lived a perfect life and really died paying the penalty of our sin. Ascent- this reality of history is FOR YOU. Trust- ask God for the gracious gift of faith to believe that.
