Growing in Grace- Links 11/19

Posted on November 19, 2020November 18, 2020 by James Williams

A collection of links from around the web to encourage your growth in grace!

2020 Will Not Be Wasted

“But 2020 will not be wasted because God does not waste experiences. If you have been united to Christ, then there is not one moment of 2020 that you can describe as worthless. The mundane, the disappointing, the hard, the boring, the encouraging, the heartbreaking – God won’t squander a second of it. We may not know what good God will bring from 2020 but we can trust our heavenly Father to use it for his glory and to make us more like Christ.”

Zombie Sins

“Here’s what I am learning. Paul asks me to slay sin, a theme that John Owen would later riff off as he famously quipped, “Be killing sin or sin will be killing you,” and I thought I was. But I was wrong.

Burying sin is not the same as killing it.”

Where to Look When You Question Your Salvation

“Rather than asking, “am I elect?”, the question should be, do I believe Jesus died for me? Do I believe his sacrifice is sufficient to save? If the answer is no, then believe today. Turn away from your sin and trust in Christ today. Start praying for the Spirit to enable you to kill sin habits and flee temptation right now.”

God Sees Your Intentions

God sees both our external actions and our internal motivations. Doing “good things” for the wrong reasons is not pleasing to him.
