Grace - The Sixth Dispensation - also known as the Church Age
  • Grace is the unmerited favor of God. It is the loving disposition of God from which all of His kindness toward us, flows.
  • By grace we are saved.  Ephesians 2:8
  • Grace began at Pentecost (Acts 2) and it will end when all who are born again by the baptism of the Holy Ghost and those who will be caught up (raptured) out of this world to be with Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
  • In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us.  Ephesians 1:7-8
  • 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.  Ephesians 2:6-7
  • God's grace allows allows one to repent and come to God through Jesus. We cannot turn to God without turning from what God is against.....sin.
Sermon
Mark 4:35-41 - And the same day, when the even was come, he said unto them, "Let us pass over unto the other side." And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship.  And there were also with him other little ships.  And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was not full.  And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they away him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?  And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, "Peace, be still." And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. And he said unto the, "Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?"  And they feared exceedingly, and said on to another, "What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
Subject: When The Storms of Life Are Raging
  • Jesus is an ever present help.
  • Jesus had already assured them in verse 35 that they would make it to the other side when he said, "Let us pass over unto the other side."
  • There was a crisis but there was also a crisis manager - Jesus.
  • We, as Christians, when a crisis arises, tend to cry or whine.
  • We need to cry out in prayer.
  • No matter the situation, God is there to hear our cries.
  • The command - calm
  • What God commands, it is done.
