All About Grace - Apples of Gold - May 28, 2008 -vi-

At the end there is a unique medley of Amazing Grace I cobbled together to play on the radio.  It features various artists, and I wonder how many you can name.

To listen, go to our website, www.wave94.com, look at the Apples of Gold section on the right, and click on Today’s Audio. 

I will give you a head start.  The man singing “I was blind…” is Ray Charles.

Radio Script for May 28, 2008

“All About Grace”


Hello, I’m Doug Apple…with Apples of Gold.

Let’s take a look at what the Bible says about grace.  This includes no commentary by me.  Just Bible.

Before the beginning of time, God’s grace was given to us in Christ Jesus.  (2 Timothy 1:9)

Though He was rich, through grace He became poor for our sakes.  (2 Corinthians 8:9)

When He came as a child, the grace of God was upon Him.  (Luke 2:40)

He was called “The One and Only, full of grace.”  (John 1:14)

The law was given through Moses, but grace came through Jesus Christ.  (John 1:17)

And now God, the God of all grace, calls us by the grace of Christ.  (1 Peter 5:10 and Galatians 1:6)

Through Him and for His name’s sake, we received grace.  (Romans 1:5)

It is by grace that we believe.  (Acts 18:27)

And we who believe receive God’s abundant provision of grace.  (Romans 5:17)

We are justified freely by His grace, having the hope of eternal life.  (Romans 3:24 and Titus 3:7)

It is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved.  (Acts 15:11)

It is by grace we are saved.  It is the gift of God.  (Ephesians 2:8)

We do not set aside the grace of God.  (Galatians 2:21)

Where sin increased, grace increased all the more.  (Romans 5:20)

Sin shall not be our master, because we are under grace.  (Romans 6:14)

His grace is sufficient.  (2 Corinthians 12:9)

His grace is a surpassing grace.  (2 Corinthians 9:14)

God shows us His kindness through the incomparable riches of His grace.  (Ephesians 2:7)

Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may find grace to help in time of need.  (Hebrews 4:16)

And God is able to make all grace abound to us, so that we have everything we need.  (2 Corinthians 9:8)

From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another.  (John 1:16)

God’s grace builds us up and gives us an inheritance.  (Acts 20:32)

He has called us to a holy life, not because of us, but because of His grace.  (2 Timothy 1:9)

So we walk in holiness, not according to worldly wisdom, but according to God’s grace.  (2 Corinthians 1:12)

We are strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.  (2 Timothy 2:1)

It is in this grace that we now stand.  (Romans 5:2)

We set our hope fully on this grace.  (1 Peter 1:13)

The promise comes by grace, and that grace, from the One man Jesus Christ, overflows to the many.  (Romans 4:16 and 5:15)

This grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.  (Titus 2:11)

We must see to it that no one misses the grace of God.  (Hebrews 12:15)

At the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace, and this is the task the Lord Jesus has given us – to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.  (Romans 11:5 and Acts 20:24)

He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.”  Amen.  Come, Lord Jesus.  (Revelation 22:20)

The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people.  Amen.  (Revelations 22:21)

(Proverbs 25:11 – “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.”)

Why “The Arrow’s Tip”?  Each morning, after diligently seeking the Lord, I write Apples of Gold.  Then before I release it to the public I pray one final prayer, “Lord, send forth your arrows.”  I envision Apples of Gold as arrows, tips dipped in the river of the water of life that flows from the throne of God (Rev. 22:1), sailing toward the hearts and minds of men and women around the world.
