God saved us–not by anything we did in our own righteousness–but because He is gracious and merciful and gave us the righteousness of Christ.
—Salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, eliminates any kind of personal boasting. Notice that Paul says in verses 1-2 “We ourselves were this way…”
–Salvation by free grace in Christ humbles every single person, when he or she realizes that their sins were so heinous Jesus had to die on their behalf in order to satisfy God’s justice.
–Salvation by free grace in Christ also emboldens every person, because he or she realizes that Jesus was willing to die for them!
–Salvation by free grace through faith in Christ edifies each person, because each person-no matter his or her circumstances in the world-knows that they have the hope of eternal life and a complete inheritance with Jesus!
–Salvation by grace through faith propels each person to good works, because we respond out of love and joyful obedience. Grace frees us to pursue God as a result of being his beloved child, not because we are trying to crawl our way back to Him.

Why do people refuse to yield to God?
First, we don’t want a God who makes distinctions and judgments.
Second, because we like to keep our options open, even when God commands us to obey Him.
The satisfaction and joy yielding to God is much better than the alternative of not yielding to Him and facing the consequences of which Jesus speaks.

Mary tells us that God keeps His promises, that He is merciful, and that He accepts those who are humble before Him. Have you humbled yourself before the infant Jesus, who is also the Savior and King?
