Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. - Hebrews 4:16
- “Let Us”—all believers who love our Lord Jesus and rest in his redemptive grace.
- “Come boldly”—without fear of being turned away because of our infirmities and sins; without fear of censure or condemnation.
- “Unto the throne of grace;” because our Lord obeyed the law and died in our stead, the throne of justice and judgment is now a throne of grace and mercy.
- “That we may obtain mercy;” this was one of Paul's favorite words, “I obtained mercy.” It was not merited nor earned, but freely bestowed.
- “And find grace to help in time of need.” Our time of need is all the time! I came to Christ as a lost sinner, I come to Christ as a saved sinner, and one day I will be a trophy of the exceeding riches of his grace toward me in Christ Jesus.
