How do we know God's grace is true?

Answered in 12 sources

We know God's grace is true as He lifts the marginalized to honor, frequently demonstrated by His actions throughout Scripture.

The truth of God's grace is predominantly evidenced through the transformative acts of God towards the marginalized and lost. For example, throughout Scripture, we witness God’s initiative in reaching out to those in the depths of despair and giving them hope, dignity, and purpose. In 1 Samuel 2:8, the Lord illustrates His grace by lifting the beggar from the dunghill, showcasing an overwhelming love that transcends mere human understanding. This grace is affirmed by the consequent elevation of such individuals to esteemed positions, signifying not only their salvation but their inclusion in God's royal family.

Furthermore, God demonstrates His grace through Christ's abasement and sacrificial death, paving the way for sinners to have life and to be heirs in His kingdom. Romans 8:17 illustrates that those who are in union with Christ share in His inheritance, confirming the richness of God's grace. The unchanging character of God, revealed in Christ, assures believers that His grace reaches the most destitute, confirming that grace is a tangible and transformative reality for all who believe.
