What goes in, must come out
Once the power and promise of God's grace is understood the truth of the above statement as it applies to Grace, becomes reality in the lives of believers. If we constantly are fed the lie that we can become perfect through works and condemnation we will, at every opportunity, speak that same dogma to those foolish enough to listen to us.
Our salvation inside us is past tense, and it is also future tense. Usually when we speak about God's salvation we talk about what we have been saved to. We look forward to our immortal body where our mortal bodies "put on" immortality. That's great news but, even better news is that we have been saved "from something."
We are saved from the eternal repercussion of our sin. Once the reality of that truth "goes in" the truth of what actually happened at Calvary and within us has to "come out!"
Do you understand the amazing grace of God and what was accomplish for each of us trough Jesus? Listen to what you are saying. Take notice! Because what you truly believe and understand about God's grace has to come to the surface as you live out each day.
"A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of." Luke 6:45 NIV
