# Connecting Statement:
Paul describes the believers' position and fellowship in Christ as they wait for his coming.
# because of the grace of God that Christ Jesus gave to you
Paul speaks of grace as though it were a physical object that Jesus gives Christians as a gift. Alternate translation: "because Christ Jesus has made it possible for God to be kind to you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
