Word of God clearly says in JOHN 1:16-17-- From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
In today's generation most of the people do not have fear of the Lord and also many other take God for granted when everything is going on well in their life.
Because of this we see today people coming to church with mobile on and also many girls and woman dressing immodestly.
When we are taking God for granted and do not have fear of the Lord then it is very easy for us to commit any sin big or small.
Before Jesus Christ came to this earth we have seen punishment for committing sins like great flood or rain of sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah or biting of serpents or earth swallowing the rebelling people or people perishing in the desert and not entering promise land or exile to Babylon.
After Jesus came on this earth and He suffered and died on the cross we are not seeing these serious punishments only because after Jesus death on the cross He transferred us from law to Grace.
Through Jesus fullness we have received Grace upon Grace. The question we need to ask ourself is whether we have received Grace by believing in Jesus or missed His Grace by believing more on men.
Jesus sacrifice on the cross of Calvary helped us to reconcile with God and also qualified us to stand boldly in the presence of God.
Grace of God is not given to us because we did something good but it is given to us to fill the gap which is required for our qualification to receive His blessing.
Let us do our best to live a life of holiness by going to confession and fasting regularly and also spend time before God in a worthy manner and grow in the Grace of God.
