Ref. DLG B 8 : Election Of Grace

'' Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace '' Romans 11:5  

God choose us by his grace not by merit , because Jesus Christ has paid the price for us to be elected by God.  The truth is that many have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God , but Jesus Christ however gave us the credit of righteousness , so that we can stand before the Almighty God . '' For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. '' 2 Corinthians 5:21 

When we are elected by grace , it is not by virtue of our deeds , but is by the virtue of Christ's righteousness credited to our account . ''  And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.'' Romans 11:6 God choose us to serve and to stand before him in his kingdom , by the finished work that Christ has already accomplished in the cross of Calvary .

The law was given to enforce righteousness , but the weakness of human beings could not obey the law of righteousness . Therefore , Yeshua brought a grace of righteousness that is meant to save us .  '' And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. '' John 1:16-17 To be elected by grace means that what we could not do  the grace of God has done it for us . 

The sinful nature could not overcome sin ,but the grace working through Christ overcame the sinful flesh on our behalf . '' For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.come sin , but the grace working through Christ overcame the sinful flesh on our behalf . '' Romans 8:3-4  Our righteousness was fulfilled in Christ's perfect righteousness and for that matter our life was made better and equipped by the grace .

Whenever , you are elected by this grace of God you have an inherit ability to overcome sin , because the grace gives you the power over sin  '' For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. '' Romans 6:14  A perfect election by grace gives you a life that is free from the slavery of sin and ushers you into the freedom of righteousness that Christ Jesus promised us . { John 8:34-36 } 

Prayer : 

Lord Jesus thank you for electing me to stand in your presence by the grace of God upon my life in the name of Yeshua .I receive more grace  to serve you more day by day in the name of  Yeshua . Amen .
