Grace Resources
The Gospel of Grace & the New Covenant.
A free teaching resource — what grace actually is, what changed at the cross, and how to live from the finished work of Jesus.
At REIGN Church we preach, teach, and live the Gospel of Grace. Everything we believe flows from one truth: Jesus has already finished the work. Our part is not to earn what He has given — it is to receive it, believe it, and live from it.
This page is a resource you can read, study, and share. It gathers the core teaching, the key Scriptures, and a simple study plan so you can see the Gospel of Grace and the New Covenant for yourself in the Word of God.
Foundations
Four pillars of grace.
Grace is a Person
Grace is not merely a doctrine or an idea — grace is Jesus. "For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ." When you receive Jesus, you receive grace itself.
John 1:17
Righteousness is a gift
"God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God." Righteousness is not earned by behaviour — it is imputed by faith.
2 Corinthians 5:21
A better covenant
"But in fact the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which He is mediator is superior to the old one, since the new covenant is established on better promises."
Hebrews 8:6
Reigning in life
"How much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ." Receiving is the key to reigning.
Romans 5:17
Old Covenant vs New Covenant
A better covenant, built on better promises.
The Old Covenant was a covenant of law — dependent on human performance. The New Covenant is a covenant of grace — dependent on Christ's performance. Understanding the difference changes how you pray, how you read Scripture, and how you live.

Key Scriptures on grace.
