The Grace of God That Brings Salvation

The Grace of God That Brings Salvation

The grace of God once one has accepted things should be denied ungodliness and worldly desires for one should live soberly, righteously. I thought of another scripture that fits here– 2 Corinthians 6:17 (MEV) Therefore, “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.”  As we also read in Isaiah 52:11,  Ezekiel 20:34,  Ezekiel 20:41.

Titus 2:11-14 (MEV) 11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, 12 teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly, righteously, and in godliness in this present world, 13 as we await the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all lawlessness and purify for Himself a special people, zealous of good works.

Apostle Paul, was one of the most important leaders of early Christians and he did understood that he was not the leader of the churches he founded, Jesus Christ was. Paul also understood that he would not be around forever, so in Titus, he instructs one of his protegé [probably a young man] on how to select church leaders. However I love these two verses from Paul, and they still hold true to this day. We do need to say NO to ungodliness this very day. You have read where I said we can not live with one foot with God and one foot in the world. As far back as Joshua 24:15 (NIV) But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” The people are asked to choose who they are going to serve. It is time to pick a side

In Matthew 6:24 (NIV) “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. No one is fooling God or a real Christian for we are told we can see how someone is walking by the way they act. In Matthew 12:33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.
