There is no more important word for a Christian than the word ‘grace’. It

is the beginning, middle and end of the Christian life. Its vital

importance is seen in how passionately Paul responds to the Galatians who

have had the gospel of grace polluted with gracelessness. We are all

susceptible to doing something similar. So let us have the same

no-holds-barred response of Paul. We should take no prisoners in our battle

to hold the shocking grace of Jesus, in all his unconditional love,

unconditional forgiveness, and unconditional rescue of us, at the very

heart of our lives.
