For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
The grace of God is instructive. It not only: gives, blesses, frees, relieves, but it also teaches. Never allow your faith to rest in a grace that provides for no growth.
It teaches us to deny
Grace isn’t a license to sin. Far from it. Grace teaches us to deny and turn from ungodliness and worldly lusts.
It teaches us to live
And specifically, how to live: soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world.
It teaches us to look
We live today but we look for tomorrow. We can deny and we can live because we look for that blessed hope.
