(Psalm 128:1)Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.
(Romans 15:7) Full life - Accepted in Christ

We cannot earn God's acceptance, it is granted by his grace and love in Jesus Christ. The world accepts us for what we do, but Christ accepts us as we are and transforms us through his love.
