Victory in Jesus!

Most truth passes through three stages.

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

God blesses obedience.

Motives and attitudes matter.

One of the most crippling things in many believer's lives is the desire to get the credit for their actions. God's not into that.

Why did God save us totally by grace? He could have put in a few works that were required.

Ephesians 2:8-9 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. (KJV)

God will have the credit. He works in amazing ways.
