Good day Templar family
The Bible makes it clear that we can’t get right with God by our own merit. We can’t add onto the finished work of Christ. Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone.

The Bible makes it clear that we can’t get right with God by our own merit. We can’t add onto the finished work of Christ. Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone. However, when we see how far we were from God and the great price that was paid for us, that compels us to please Him. His love for us is why we seek to do His will.
When you have been so captivated by the love of God for you in Christ Jesus you want to be obedient to Him. You are not going to want to take advantage of His love. Our hearts have been transformed and overwhelmed with so much grace, so much love, and such freedom from Christ that we willingly offer ourselves to God.
We have been regenerated by the power of the Holy Spirit and we have new desires and affections for Jesus. We want to please Him and we want to honor Him with our lives. That doesn’t mean that it’s not a struggle. That doesn’t mean that we won’t be captivated by other things at times. However, we will see evidence of God working in our life growing us in the things of God.
Have a blessed Monday and week ahead
