We’re not just at peace with God. There’s much more.
The grace in which we stand, this is the unmerited favour of God. This is Him showering blessings on us.
So He hasn’t just said, I’m not going to punish you. I’m not going to wipe you out. He says, and also, I’m going to give you gifts.
And there are many gifts which God gives us. Even if we feel like we’re living in this world in a state of poverty, God pours his gifts on us. The gift of life, the gift of time, spiritual gifts, practical gifts, the gift of being part of his plan, a person through whom God works. This grace abounds.
And of course, it goes even further than that to a greater gift, a greater treasure than all those things I’ve just mentioned. The gift of being assured a place in eternity with God.
Prior to what Christ achieved, we had almost zero chance of getting that. And so that’s why Paul says we rejoice in this hope, not just in the hope of what is to come, but in the hope of living in the glory of God.
