We Are Saved By Grace - Acts 15

S - Acts 15:11 We believe that we are all saved the same way, by the undeserved grace of the Lord Jesus.
O - There was a disagreement between the believers in Antioch about whether or not the Gentiles needed to be circumcised in order to be a believer. There was such a division that they sent paul back to Jerusalem to discuss this with the apostles to come back with an official word. This is one of the arguements that James had. We are saved only through the grace of Jesus Christ.
A - This statement to me points out two points. First, I need to be telling everyone that I meet about Jesus and what He did for them. This is the only way that they can invite Him into their heart and accept Jesus as their Savior. Second, since this grace is not based on outward actions or anything that is visible other than the moment that they accept Him into their heart, I need to refrain from judging people's faith and salvation. When they accept Jesus into their hearts their actions should follow suit but I should never assume that if someone does something blatantly wrong that they are not a believer.
P - God, give me a heart to spread your word and strengthen other believers. I ask that you give me strength and courage in dealing with people and to be bold with your message. I pray that you give me your heart to see the true heart of people and to not judge them based only what I can see. You are amazing Lord! I thank you for the healing that you have brought to my family and for the continued healing for myself and my family. I pray a blessing over my family and me today.
