In this passage from Luke 4 Christ preaches Christ. He is the need of the Sinner. By declaring himself from the scriptures, the eyes of all are fastened on him. He describes who he came to save with "Grace words". These words describe what God in Christ has done for the Sinner. Not what the sinner does for God. That's grace and reveals what Christ works in his redeemed child. To reveal who his children are, Christ preaches the grace of God in saving whom he will save. The Jews present were angered by this grace of God and sought to kill Christ, but he passed right through them. Let us bow before Sovereign, Almighty God and beg Christ not to pass us by.
