Only God ...


Only God

 

Romans 11:5-6 

So in the same way at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. 

And if it is by grace, it is no longer by works, otherwise grace would no longer be grace.

 

Grace is entirely from God ... let not your minds fool you.

Christ does all salvation ... He motivates repentance.

But you say “What about I?”... I have to make a decision.

I and I just make a “why”? And that is one for instance.

 

For you to decide is work ... like moving yourself into the picture?

Dead in sin is what you were ... far beyond a state of coma.

No sign of life was found in you ... not even in your spirit.

You basically were a smelling corpse ... an unchangeable aroma.

 

So it was The Lord, Who moved ... it was The Lord, Who gave.

It is God, Who leads ... the lost to repentance.

It is through His Son ... and only through His Life,

that the Way of Truth is enhanced in us.

 

Holiness and godly sincerity only come by Grace.

Wisdom and understanding are exposed through it.

Daylight shines, everlasting bright and darkness disappears,

when Grace released in power embraces the all in us.
