God's Grace Apart From Law

by Mick Mooney

Paul's letter to the Roman Church is, in a nutshell, a testimony of God's grace: the Gospel of God. It brings into focus not only the correct way to understand the New Covenant reality of grace, but also, perhaps more significantly, the correct way to understand the Old Covenant of law. The importance of this clarification cannot be understated. In fact, it was the dominant theme Paul continued to clarify to the church throughout his entire known ministry. To Paul, the Christian life was lived through the profound reality of grace.

The New Covenant is the awakening of God's divine way of the Spirit, established at its appointed time through the finished work of his Son. Paul was convinced of this new era of grace, and, in a way that perhaps only Paul could do, he explained how all things found their reality in grace and how all things are achieved through the power of grace. Grace was not merely a nice word to Paul; it was the very nature of God. It was to Paul, and remains true for every generation, the all-encompassing power of the Almighty.

'God's Grace Apart From Law' is an easy to read, conversational journey through the first three chapters of Paul's letter to the Roman church. If you want to gain a better understanding of how the New Covenant functions and how to correctly understand the relationship between God's grace and God's law, then this book will help you greatly.

[Caleb Gibson · Rating 5 out of 5]

We are not under law, we are under Grace!

[Georgia · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love his books as they explain the letters of Paul and that we are saved by God's grace and are no longer under the law and that we are called by God to let Jesus live through us. It's about life with Jesus as opposed to religion which trying to work your way into heaven and ignorning God's grace. Jesus died to start the new covenant of grace only, so that nothing we do can draw us closer to God than accepting Jesus and letting him live through us. This book Explains Romans

[Elizabeth Ponds · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's good, but it desperately needs editing because of all the grammatical errors. Also, I was under the impression that Mick Mooney believed in Inclusion... He doesn't. He thinks people have to accept Christ as their personal savior to be saved or accepted. That was something I personally disliked.

[Michael Donahoe · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very good explanation of the grace of God. This book explains and makes clear the difference between old testament law and new testament grace.

[Jon Mills · Rating 3 out of 5]

Great topic. The Author is accurate but I found it quite repetitive.

[David · Rating 2 out of 5]

Got this as a free kindle offer on Amazon. Makes some good points, but is poorly written and repetitive. That said, there's a good book hidden somewhere in this effort.
