Preaching God’s Grace – Base Art – Uncommon Church Event – AlephTau Set – Bible TCG

Bold Strength In Weakness

Preaching God’s Grace is a 3 cost Event that gives +5 Strength to a damaged friendly being, creating a sudden massive power spike. It’s perfect for turning a near-defeated unit into a threatening attacker or dependable defender, shifting the game’s momentum in your favor.

The Unstoppable Gospel

The call to preach the gospel of the grace of God is the highest privilege one can have. It is the very heartbeat of the New Testament, the same message entrusted to Paul and confirmed by the Spirit. Grace is not an accessory to the gospel, it is the gospel. From the Law given on Sinai to the veil torn in the temple, all history points to the day when salvation would be given freely to those who believe, apart from works, apart from rituals, apart from the weight of the law.

The ministry Paul received was not man-made, not crafted from tradition, but revealed directly by Jesus. It is the declaration that Christ’s blood is sufficient for righteousness, that His resurrection is the guarantee of eternal life, and that His Spirit is the power for daily living. This is why Paul could say "none of these things move me" - Acts 20:24. Nothing, not persecution, not hardship, not even death, could stop the river of grace flowing through him to the nations.

This card's verse is Acts 20:24:

"But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God."

Every prophet of old pointed to this reality. Isaiah proclaimed, "Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters" - Isaiah 55:1. Jeremiah foretold a covenant where God Himself would write His law on our hearts. Ezekiel spoke of a Spirit within us, causing us to walk in His ways. All these promises find their Yes and Amen in Jesus Christ, the one who became sin for us so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Grace That Strengthens the Weak

The power of this gospel is that it meets us where we are, not where we think we should be. Grace is strength for the broken, life for the dead, boldness for the fearful, and joy for the weary. In the Old Testament, the Spirit came upon men for moments of power, but now the Spirit dwells within us, making us living temples of God’s presence. The law could demand strength, but only grace can give it.

The gospel of grace lifts up the fallen, restores the crushed, and clothes the believer in righteousness. It is not earned, it is received. It is not maintained by human effort, but sustained by the unbreakable promise of God. This is why Paul, beaten and bruised, could still finish his race with joy, because his ministry was not fueled by his strength, but by Christ’s.

Believer, the same gospel that Paul preached is the gospel that defines us today. We are the living proof of God’s grace, justified, sanctified, and empowered by the finished work of Jesus: how He died for us by bleeding on the cross, was buried, and rose the third day. We are not under the law, we are in Christ, and as He is, so are we in this world. His strength is our strength, His life is our life, and His victory is our victory. We run our race with joy, knowing the gospel of grace will never fail.

Strategic Use In Gameplay

This card excels in decks that actively damage their own creatures to trigger powerful follow-up plays or patience mechanics. By buffing a wounded unit, you gain both aggressive punch and resilience, making unexpected trades or defenses possible, even when your board looks tenuous.

Synergies and Plays:

Aggressive Surprise: A damaged creature suddenly gaining +5 Strength can catch opponents off guard, swinging into trades they thought were won or pushing game winning damage unexpectedly.
Patience Trigger: Use with units that bolster or activate when they take damage; this buff lets you get full value from the unit while securing tempo.
Flexible Utility: Works both offensively to take down big threats and defensively to protect key units in your army.
