The Difference Grace Makes | Titus 2:15-3:2
from Freedom Bible Church Hosted by Freedom Bible Church
What difference should saving grace make in the way Christians live in the world? In Titus 2:15–3:2, Paul carries the truth of grace into the church's life under God's Word, its readiness to do good, and its treatment of all people. Titus must keep bringing that truth to bear. Believers are called to live under civil authority and stand ready for every good work. They are also called to speak without reviling, avoid a taste for quarrels, and show gentleness without choosing exceptions. This life is not a way to earn God's acceptance. Jesus Christ gave Himself to redeem and purify a people for Himself; His grace is still training them. Paul's brief look ahead to “we ourselves were once” keeps Christians from moral superiority. The same grace that rescued us shapes how we live among others.
