But Servants

Living God's Way (Titus 2:11-14) - Just For Starters #3


Listen Later

What is the place of good works in the Christian life? Many people are confused when it comes to good works. On the one hand people make the mistake of thinking that they need to earn their way to heaven by their good works. They think that if they are religious and moral then they can earn their way to heaven. On the other hand, there are people who think that good works are irrelevant. They think that

because we’re saved by grace, simply by trusting in what Jesus has done on the cross that our good works are irrelevant.  But both views are wrong. So what is the right place of good works in the Christian life?


This sermon was preached at Beacon Learning Centre on 22nd March 2024.


Introduction: The place of good works?

4. God’s spirit enables us to respond to God’s grace



Conclusion

a. Have you received God’s gift of salvation?

b. Have you been changed by God’s grace?
