Grace, Grace

Zechariah 4:7 KJV
Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

Zerubbabel, as a type of Christ, lays the last stone completing the Temple. The picture is of Jesus Christ, bringing the last soul possible to the saving knowledge of the Lord.

As he brings this stone he shouts and cries, "Grace, grace unto it."

The marking characteristic of Jesus Christ is grace. He gives freely and He gives to those who are so undeserving of His gifts.

• His message is a message of grace
• His identity with man is all of grace
• His sacrificial death was a gracious act
• His calling of the sinner is grace
• His preparing a heavenly place for us is gracious
• His promise that we will be with Him is of grace
