In today's exploration of Wesley's understanding of grace through Ephesians 2, we discovered that salvation is far more than just reaching heaven—it's about being in union with Christ right now. Through God's rich mercy and great love, we are not only saved but made alive together with Christ, experiencing His transformative grace in the present moment.

This grace comes through a personal faith that God Himself gives us—the ability to see, believe, and trust that Jesus died specifically for each of us. As we look for evidence of God's work in our lives and expect His continued transformation, we're reminded that He is actively sanctifying us, making us more Christlike day by day. This isn't just about forgiveness; it's about ongoing growth through His immeasurable grace.
