We Obey God's Law, Not To Be

Every Day That We're Not Practicing Godliness We're Being Conformed To The World Of Ungodliness Around Us.

If There Is Not At Least A Yearning In Our Hearts To Live A Holy Life Pleasing To God, We Need To Seriously Question Whether Our Faith In Christ Is Genuine.

God Never Allows Pain Without A Purpose.

Our Sins Are Forgiven And We Are Accepted As Righteous By God Because Of Both The Sinless Life And Sin-bearing Death Of Our Lord Jesus Christ. There Is No Greater Motivation For Dealing With Sin In Our Lives Than The Realization Of These Two Glorious Truths Of The Gospel.

The Assurance Of His Total Forgiveness Of Our Sins Through The Blood Of Christ Means We Don't Have To Play Defensive Games Anymore. We Don't Have To Rationalize And Excuse Our Sins. We Can Call Sin Exactly What It Is, Regardless Of How Ugly And Shameful It May Be, Because We Know That Jesus Bore That Sin In His Body On The Cross.
