G is for Grace

We need to continually learn and teach the Gospel because Gospel-centricity assures and propels us toward grace-centricity.  When we swerve from the Gospel we lapse into either antinomianism or legalism.  Neither can offer the true beauty or savor of Christ.  To be in the presence of individuals or congregations who are not grace-centered is enervating and exasperating.  Let us then learn and relearn the glorious Gospel that we may ever stand fast in the true grace of God (1 Peter 5:12) and may indeed “grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forevermore. Amen” (2 Peter 3:18).
