2 Kings 10:1-36; Jeremiah 45:1-47:7; Hebrews 12:1-17
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 2 Peter 3:18
The Christian life should be one of continual development. When we trusted Christ as Saviour it was the start of a journey to be completed when we arrive in heaven. The journey is about a personal increase in knowledge and understanding of the Lord, His ways, and His Word. That understanding has to move from head to heart, from inside to outside. The Christian character needs to be increasingly like the Saviour and revealed outwardly in gracious dealings with others. Grace is bestowing favour to those who don’t deserve it. Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ
and such qualities need to be seen in His followers. —Paul Young
Grace, our highest thought transcending,
“Grace and truth” in Him are blending. —Douglas Russell
