The Gift of God – It’s Grace that Unites Us

These words are the theme of our service today and of the church convention
which is meeting in Adelaide in these days. It is based on Ephesians 2:8-10, and on
the unity words of Ephesians 4. The very Good News is that through the Holy Spirit
we are all baptised into the body of Christ, and saved entirely by grace, as a totally
free gift. We are gathered into this one body for a purpose. That purpose is to do
the good works of loving God and loving one another. We certainly do not do these
Good Works in order to be saved, but as a response to being saved. Jesus calls us
to go and live the way of love as we spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth,
until Jesus comes again. We are called to go until Jesus comes.
