Body Piercing
As a Christian we all believe that Jesus was the one who saved us. This was the ultimate act of grace. He sacrificed himself for us. We are thankful for his all-encompassing grace even though we don't deserve it, and we certainly didn't earn it. Jesus died for us the same as he died for everyone else. If we don't understand what Jesus did for us, it is difficult to understand grace and share it with others.
As Jesus was hanging there on the cross the murderer next to him asked to be remembers. This man deserved his punishment and did nothing while on earth that would justify him being saved, yet Jesus responded “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.” If Jesus died for the man next to him, I am pretty sure that the people we don't like for whatever reason were also on the unending list of people Jesus dies for.
