Grace message

What is GRACE MESSAGE?
Very easy.
================================
TITUS 2:11&12
(nkjv)

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,
(niv)

For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age,
(msg)
God’s readiness to give and forgive is now public. Salvation’s available for everyone! We’re being shown how to turn our backs on a godless, indulgent life, and how to take on a God-filled, God-honoring life.
=================================

If you hear any message, and you don't get up and say
"By the very present help of God in me now, I turn my back on my old life"
"No more worldly living"
"I renounce every lust"
If you are hearing messages, and you don't get up and say
"I have no choice in Christ but to live right"
"I live righteously"
Then you HAVE NOT HEARD GRACE MESSAGE

Did you read it?
It TEACHES us to TURN OUR BACKS on ungodliness
It TRAINS us to RENOUNCE worldly desires
It INSTRUCTS us to *SAY NO to godless living
It is an ACTIVE matter, NOT a passive one.
Grace message DOES NOT JUST TELL PEOPLE ABOUT FINISHED WORKS
Grace message DOES NOT JUST TELL PEOPLE THEY HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN
THAT IS NOT GRACE MESSAGE!
Anyone who teaches that IS NOT TEACHING GRACE.
It is not "Just tell her who she is in Christ Jesus, and she will "grow out of it"
That is NOT grace message
It is NOT "whatever you do or fail to do, does not matter"
That is NOT grace message
It DOES NOT say "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, what we have been made in Christ Jesus, so that when we know it, we naturally grow out of ungodliness and worldly lusts, and it is not so much about living soberly or righteously. Buddhist monks already do that without the gospel. And you are already the righteousness of God"
Ewo! That is NOT GRACE MESSAGE!

Paul said "let him that STOLE, STEAL NO MORE"
Paul said "PUT AWAY lying", NOT "grow out of" lying.
Paul said "FLEE fornication"
Paul said "HAVE NO FELLOWSHIP WITH the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather REPROVE them"
Peter said "ABSTAIN FROM FLESHY LUSTS, which war against the soul"
THAT IS GRACE MESSAGE.

If therefore you hear a message, or you are hearing a series of messages, and the uppermost and greatest result in your heart, mouth, and life is
"I denounce all ungodliness"
"I don't do whatever I like (indulgent c.f., the msg translation)"
"I live soberly and godly, not by my effort, but by Christ who is alive in me"
"By the help of God's Spirit, my conduct is upright"
Then you HAVE heard HOLINESS MESSAGE
You have heard GRACE MESSAGE.
For they are THE SAME MESSAGE.
Any holiness message that needs balancing with 'grace' because justification by free grace is not taught in its core presentation, is NOT holiness anything.
And any grace message that needs balancing with instructions for right living and admonition for not living right because those are not part of its core message, is NOT grace anything
TRUE holiness message makes you know that holiness is A GIFT OF GRACE
And TRUE grace message makes you YIELD TO THAT GRACE in all holiness
It is THE SAME message.
It is ONE message
2 Timothy 1:9

[For it is He] Who delivered and saved us and called us with a calling in itself holy and leading to holiness [to a life of consecration, a vocation of holiness]; [He did it] not because of anything of merit that we have done, but because of and to further His own purpose and grace (unmerited favor) which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago].

.
THAT IS THE GOSPEL OF GRACE
THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM
THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST
The ONLY gospel there is.
ALL other "grace messages" are ANOTHER gospel.
ALL other "grace messages" are LIES.
And let the people of God say....
Amen.!!
