ROOT or FRUIT of Salvation? PART 19 of *I BELIEVE IN GOD vs I OBEY GOD | TO CHURCH vs TO GOD*

Holiness is NOT the ROOT of Salvation but the FRUIT of Salvation. *WE DO NOT LIVE HOLY LIVES TO BE SAVED, WE LIVE HOLY LIVES BECAUSE WE ARE SAVED*

We do NOT pursue Purity to gain God's love. We pursue Purity because WE ARE ALREADY LOVED.

We do NOT strive for righteousness to earn acceptance. We live righteously because we have been accepted in the beloved.

*TRUE HOLINESS FLOWS SWIFTLY AND NATURALLY WHEN A PERSON GRASPS THIS REVELATION*

I am the righteousness of God in Christ. 2nd Corinthians 5:21.

When you know that your right standing with God is a gift, you no longer strive to earn his favor by your works. *YOU REST IN THE FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST*

Out of that Rest, LOVE is kindled.

Out of that Love, OBEDIENCE blossoms.

Out of that Assurance, HOLINESS becomes a joy NOT A BURDEN.

So grace does NOT MAKE YOU ENDLESSLY CONSCIOUS OF YOUR SINS, always feeling guilty, always crushed under Condemnation.

*GRACE MAKES YOU CONSCIOUS OF YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS IN CHRIST*

And that revelation produces Joy, Peace and a HOLY WALK.

Grace whispers, "You're forgiven". You're accepted. You're empowered. *NOW WALK IN THE LIGHT OF WHO YOU ARE*

Grace declares sin shall not have dominion over you for you're not under LAW but under grace. Romans 6: 14.

If your version of grace lives you comfortable in sin, then your grace is FAKE.

If your version of grace let's you dance with the world, your grace is FALSE.

If your version of grace excuses your Rebellion, your grace is DEMONIC.

For the grace of God does NOT live a man as it found him. It Transforms, Renews, Empowers, and SANCTIFIES.

So child of God, hold fast to the true grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. *REJOICE THAT YOUR SALVATION IS NOT BY YOUR WORKS, BUT BY HIS FINISHED WORK ON THE CROSS*

Stand confident in that your right standing is NOT YOUR DOING, but his doing, his gift. BUT DO NOT TWIST THIS GIFT AS AN EXCUSE TO REMAIN IN SIN.

REPENT! And receive the power to be Holy. It is not by your power or might, but by his Holy Spirit.

GRACE IS NOT A WEAK COVER FOR SIN, BUT A MIGHTY WEAPON AGAINST SIN
