This week’s Bible Talk took us to 1 Timothy 1:1-11 where we discovered that there is a chain of command from King Jesus that operates within the church for the good of the church – to maintain the truth and promote the goal of love.

I love this part on grace by J.I.Packer from the book The Most Important 18 Words You Will Ever Know.
“The word ‘grace’ thus comes to express the thought of God acting in spontaneous goodness to save sinners: God loving the unlovely,making covenant with them,pardoning their sins,accepting their persons,revealing Himself to them,moving them to response,leading them ultimately into the full knowledge and enjoyment of Himself,and overcoming all obstacles to fulfilment of this purpose that at each stage arise.Grace is election-love plus covenant-love,a free choice issuing in a sovereign work. Grace saves from sin and all evil;grace brings ungodly men to true happiness in the knowledge of their Maker.This is the concept of grace with which the new testament writers work.”
I missed sharing this with my small group so decided to share it with my church family.
