This was a bit of a unique topic for us in that, this is not something we've heard talked about a lot and were simply giving Will and Ben's opinions or take on it. This week we covered an idea that God laid heavily on my (Ben's) heart. The idea is grace for the people who are in between "just saved" and sanctified. We tend to be very easy on those who have just been saved, and idolize those who have seemingly been totally transformed by the Spirit. But for many of us, we find ourselves in this middle state where we do things that we are no longer new to the faith, but we still have lots of room to grow, and it can be a merciless place! Join us this week as we talk about how we can do better having grace for those in the process of sanctification, and how we can have mercy on ourselves as we walk ever closer towards godliness.

Scripture:

1 John 1:8-10, If we claim we have no sin, we make God out to be a liar, but if we confess, God is faithful to forgive

Romans 3:23, All have sinned and fallen short

1 John 2:1-2, If we do sin, we have an advocate, Jesus Christ

James 5:16, Confess your sins to one another

Romans 6:3-7, We are no longer slaves to sin
