Getting Grace straight




For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. [Ephesians 2:7-9 KJB]

“Being saved by grace doesn’t mean God isn’t interested in how you live.  It means He didn’t save you by how you live.  But, He saves you so you can live different than the way you were living before. 

It’s not an excuse for sin…"

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? [Romans 6:1-2 KJB]

"…it has to do with an empowerment for life that you didn’t have before.”

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. [Galatians 2:20 KJB]
