Living in Grace

In a few months I will be teaching at the 10th Annual Pastor's Conference in Lugoj Romania. The theme this year is Living in Grace. As I have been preparing the talks, one statement I have used over and over is this:

"It is easier to walk in rules than it is to live in grace."

It is my prayer and hope that we all not only learn to live in grace but teach others to do so also. Here are a few questions to get us started.

1. What will walking in grace demand of you that legalism forbids?

2. What will walking in grace demand of you that license permits?

Rather than give you the answers, I challenge you to look at the gospels and Jesus' life carefully to answer these questions for yourself.  Post comments as to what you are learning.

Living in grace requires constant humble submission for we must come to terms for our need of Jesus Christ to help us to overcome the daily battles of sin.

Legalism makes one stop relying on the salvation of the cross and rely on themselves to do this or that to achieve salvation.

Walking in grace demands obedience and guidance from God's word, but most importantly a true love for the Lord because he first loved you. <3
