I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me.

I’ve been reading this verse wrong for decades.

Since my Grace revelation I’m reading it in a completely new way.

I’ve always read this verse as:

“I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me.”

I used to stress ‘everything’.

I can do everything. Nothing can stop me. I am in Christ, therefore I can do anything. Achieve everything.

But now, through the eyes of Grace, the verse has become so clear.

Paul isn’t saying he can achieve anything and everything, he’s saying he doesn’t have to do stuff on his own anymore, or in his own strength.

He can do everything through Christ.

Hey!

Hey there. I’m Steve Edwards. I’m an actor, a writer, a teacher and a preacher!

This site explores the meaning of St. Paul’s words ‘by grace we are saved’. I hope it helps you to understand that we are loved by God completely, purely, fully, regardless of our mistakes. He loves us not because of who we are, but because of who He is, and what He did for us on the cross. Amen!

Please explore the hundreds of articles on the different books of the bible, and how the bible reveals that our holiness is a gift from God, and doesn’t depend on us and our good works. Thank God for that!
