God has loved, forgiven, accepted, redeemed, and embraced the whole wide world, they all just do not know it yet.
Grace Church believes that the heart of Christianity is that God's love and grace has forgiven the entire world through Christ. Through Jesus' death, burial and resurrection, God has pronounced the whole world forgiven, redeemed and accepted! Many people think that God is angry and out to get them. Thousands of religious people have the idea that God is looking down on them from heaven with judgement and condemnation. Such is not the case! You are forgiven and accepted by God, whether you know it or not.
Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God, God Himself, come to earth in human form; He came to show us the true image of God. God is love. He loves you. He loves the whole world! God is all about love, grace, mercy, compassion, goodness, kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. He is not looking for ways to keep people out of His presence, he desires that everyone come to know that His presence and love are for all. No one is excluded from the love and salvation of Jesus Christ!
The work of the church is to share and demonstrate that Good News to its community and world, by power and life of God's love and Spirit. As people accept that they are accepted, everything in life changes for the better.
