The Grace That Saves Also Teaches

"The grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us…" (Titus 2:11-12).

The grace of God that saves us also teaches us. The grace of God delivers us from – among other things – our own solutions, our own inclinations, our own ways of doing things.

God's grace teaches us to adorn the gospel with our behavior, to deny ungodly desires, to live well in this present world, and to look for the coming of our Savior.

Does the grace of God teach us? Then may our prayer be, “God, make me a good student! Help me to learn well the lessons that your grace is bringing, through your Word.”
