Come now, let us teach grace.......

Dear Pastors.....

Would you like the people of Gods congregation, that you have care of, to be...

1. godly
2. not living for worldy passions
3. self controlled
4. upright

........then teach them the grace of God, because grace teaches them to say "no".............not your advice, not your pleading, not your manipulation, not your condemnation.....no sir, only grace.

Now, you you might ask, "where do you get that from?"

.....read Titus 2:11......

11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. 12 It (yes, thats grace) teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
