Sometimes I ;hink 'people hear it so much md in so many ways that fi nally it grows old to them and' ells off their.ears. Paul in deal ng with this vital subject spoke limply, “For by Grace Are Ye laved Through Faith; and That *ot of Yourselves: It is the Gift >f God.” (Ephesians 2:8). We may wonder just what *aul meant when he said, “For )y grace are ye saved through kith.” What could he have neant by this word that seems 10 important . . . grace. Grace tas been defined this way— ■ Grace is something that you leed but do not deserve.” A food example of this grace in the jfp of Jesus was shown the day Se Pharisees came and threw m adulterous woman a{ His eet. Then they proceeded to ell Jesus how Moses commanded h his law -that she be stoned 4 death, then they said, “But (Vhat Sayept Thou?” Jesus bent lown and wrote in the dust with lis finger, finally He stood up ttid faced them with these words, i J.

After they were all gone turned to the poor woman and said, “Neither Do I Condemn Thee: Go, And Sin No More.” (John 8). He gave her grace— something she needed but didn’t ' deserve. God gave the whole world grace when He sent His Son to earth to die and pay the price of sin for mankind. We didn’t deserve to be forgiven of our sins, we deserved punish ment. But God loved us enough to give each of us His grace .that we may be saved. Paul goes a little further, however, “For by grace are ye saved through faith.” To receive ' this grace from God we must first have faith in Jesus Christ. If we don’t believe in God’s grace how can we receive the benefit of it. We must have faith in Christ. Not just faith that a man once lived by the name of Jesus, but to have so much faith in Him that we actually make Him the center of our lives. We could conclude with extending Paul’s words to their full meaning . . . “For by the grace of God are you saved from sin. by faith in the Lord i Jesus Christ.” St. Ann’s Catholic Church.
