Grace Embrace Doug Fortune

I believe that Grace is- "God's Radical Ability to Complete Everything!" If Father promised it, if He originated it, He will finish and complete it. "And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ... developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you." (Philippians 1:6 Amplified Bible) We must have FAITH in His promise and His ability to complete what He began! There is much emphasis in the church today on spiritual gifts, signs and wonders, and that is fine to a certain extent. I believe there needs to be a much greater emphasis on the walking out of the grace, hope, love, mercy, and kindness of Christ in everyday life. Paul, the writer of most of our New Testament, was always more concerned with the formation of the character of Christ in a persons life than with spiritual giftedness; "My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed IN you..." (Galatians 4:19)
