Titus #3 - Grace of God

Good deeds can hide a hunger for approval, reward, or control. Titus 2 says God's grace does what fear and harder effort cannot: it trains people to reject ungodliness and live good lives. Jesus gave Himself to bear sin's penalty, rose again, and makes those who trust Him right with God rather than leaving them to earn His love. Grace must sink into the heart, changing the motive for obedience from self-protection to love for God. Bible Reference: Titus 2:11 Preacher: KJ Tromp
