A follower of Jesus never graduates from the gospel. The truths of Christ's finished work encompass the entirety of your life as a Christian. You need it for justification, sanctification, and glorification. Throughout the New Testament, we are given the commands of God concerning how we live as Christians, but these commands are always rooted in the grace of God and what He has done for us.
In this episode, we see three truths, from God's Word, about how the Gospel connects to our lives as Christians
The Gospel inextricably links salvation and sanctification: Ephesians 2:8-10.
The Gospel teaches us to live a Christ-honoring life: Titus 2:11-14
The Gospel motivates our lives as Christians: Romans 12-16
You need the message of Christ's finished work to be saved and to live as one of His own. We couldn't be saved in our own strength, neither can we live the Christian life in our strength. We need the message of Jesus' finished work!
