Immanuel! The God of Grace, John 1:14-18

In the last two messages, we saw Jesus as the God of Life and the God of Light. In this passage, John is tying up his introduction to his Gospel by showing Jesus as the God of Grace.
Grace is a very misunderstood word in our culture. We often think of someone kind and poised (graceful), and grace does carry this idea, but it also means so much more. Grace is God’s kind disposition toward sinners in providing a way of salvation—giving a gift that isn’t deserved.
The entire story of redemption (Gen 3:15-Rev 22:21) is God’s grace on display. As we unpack v14, I pray that we appreciate God’s grace more deeply, and we are compelled to proclaim God’s grace more broadly.
