Grace has a face. It is Jesus Christ.
~ John Paul Warren
The law says do good be right. Grace says Jesus made you right so now you are good.
Your life is a witness to the world of a loving savior and His redemptive plan for man.
Grace is not just enough, it is more than enough.
The law provides expert diagnosis of our sin problem, which is absolutely essential. But the law does not provide the cure to our sin problem. Only Jesus can save us from our sin problem.
The Law was never given to gentiles but to Jews only, so why do so many gentiles struggle today with mixing law and grace?
Spiritual maturity is not defined by how well one applies Biblical principles to “suppress sin”.
The LAW points you to self-efforts. GRACE points you to the finished work of Jesus Christ.
The sin and guilt of the human race was imputed to the spotless lamb of God, Jesus Christ when He became the sin offering for the world.
Never compromise the glorious Gospel. It is the Gospel from Christ and not merely a Gospel about Christ. Gal 1:6-12
Jesus said when you pray say Our Father which art in heaven. He did not say Our Judge which art in heaven. #grace #gospel
The Church is not called to overthrow government but to influence culture.
It is not the balance in your check book that makes life count. It is the investment one makes in the lives of others.
Life should be lived more from the heart and less from the head.
Your purpose is great than your problems.
Wherever the plan of God takes you, the grace of God will sustain you.
Refuse to be content with the knowledge of God. Insist on experiencing His presence.
So many today want merely to be familiar with Jesus in contrast to being intimate with Him.
Love is a heart smile.
God love's in the dark.
The burden of sin leads you to the need for a Savior.
Reading the scriptures through the lenses of the Law you see God as unapproachable, through the lenses of Grace you see the outstretched arms of Jesus saying come.
The fire of God comes where ever there is a sacrifice.
Repentance is not merely turning away from your sin but turning to the Lamb who takes away your sin. Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. 1 John 1:29
Spiritual maturity is not defined by how well one applies Biblical principles to “suppress sin”. If you are capable of suppressing your sins or managing them, you would have no need for a Redeemer.

I am relentlessly determine to be occupied with Jesus Christ and His Glorious Gospel and nothing else.
Grace (the Gospel) is under attack today simply because it reveals the GOODNESS of God. Nothing reveals the GOODNESS of God more than grace.
We have taught this generation how to market the Gospel but we have neglected to encourage them to preach the Gospel.
We have created a culture of leadership development in the Church at the expense of ignore the ministry of the Church to making disciples.
Grace is not a doctrine or a religion. It is a person, Jesus Christ.
The Church is Christ’s witness to the world of a loving savior and His redemptive plan for man.
Authentic leaders are often accused of being controlling by those who idly sit by and do nothing
Jesus did not command us to develop leaders. He commanded us to make disciples. The world develops leaders, the Church disciples them. The two are not the same.
Many pastors have been reduced to secular mentors and coaches in exchange for authentic disciplers of men.
