TITUS // GOD’S AMAZING GRACE

In Titus 3, Paul talks about how the gospel re-shapes how we feel about people on the outside of Christianity. People who dislike us, who misrepresent us, or even persecute us. We cannot expect unbelievers to act like believers. As believers, we must be examples of Christ so others will see the gospel of grace in our lives.

In Titus chapter 2, Paul is like a coach trying to get his team to work together. He is giving instruction to the young and the old on how to follow the direction of the gospel in their everyday lives. Paul wants them to know and understand sound doctrine and apply it to every part of their lives.

The short book of Titus was written to answer one main question: How do you live out your faith in a really difficult, immoral place. Paul wanted Titus to see that truth leads to godliness. It's not just a religion full of rituals, but a transformation of your life by the Good News of Jesus.

In the book of Lamentations, Jeremiah cries out to God. Lamentations reminds us of the importance not only of mourning over our sin but of asking the Lord for His forgiveness when we fail Him. Despite Jeremiah's hopeless feelings at times, he is able to push God’s faithfulness to the front of his mind and remember when God demonstrated His grace and mercy. Whatever hard things we go through, we must never doubt God’s faithfulness.

THIS IS OUR GOD // SLOW TO ANGER

Many people today see God as vengeful. The Bible shows us that God felt two rightful emotions toward us: wrath and compassion. In his sovereignty, He chose to bring one emotion close and push the other far away. God is fully justified in letting us feel the wrath of our sin. However, He chose to be patient with us and bring compassion near. His anger actually grows out of His love for us — His love for goodness, purity, and holiness. God’s judgment often consists of allowing us to experience the painful consequences of our choices, but He is always near to offer forgiveness and reconciliation. This is never more evident than when God sent Jesus to die for our salvation.

The parable of the Prodigal Son shows us God’s steadfast love
and loyalty at work. God’s loyalty is based on His love for us, and it
endures rejection, accepts repentance, and rewards faithful service. All we have to do is accept God's love for us -- repenting of our sin and believing in Him.

Throughout the life of Joseph, we see how God was at work throughout every situation Joseph faced. Whether he was being treated as the despised brother or the slandered slave, Genesis 50:20 rings true throughout his life. "As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today."

Ephesians 2:7 says, "so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2 goes on to tell us that by God's grace is how we are saved from eternal death. But God's grace doesn't just save us; it permeates every aspect of our lives.

In Isaiah 49, the Israelites accuse God of forsaking them. God’s reply to Israel’s foolish allegation is one of compassion. God asks, “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you.”
God goes on to tell the Israelites how much they actually mean to Him. They are so loved and so dear to Him that He has carved their names on the very palms of His hands. God’s compassion would not and could not allow Him to forget His children.

THIS IS OUR GOD // JUSTICE

Justice is one of God’s attributes and flows out of His holiness. Because God is a just God, He must judge everyone who does not meet His standards for perfection. However, God, in His loving mercy, sent Jesus to the world despite the fact that our sin demands our death. God sent His Son to be our substitute upon the cross, and Jesus paid the penalty for our sin. God's mercy and grace are not in spite of His justice, but because of it.
