The Grace of God

The reason all types of Christians are to live exemplary lives is the grace of God. That grace was shown in the coming of Jesus to bring salvation to the earth (Titus 2:11; Luke 2:25-32). When one accepts that grace, he dies to self and is raised to walk a new life. His decisions are then based on what Christ would have him do.

Grace teaches him to change his lifestyle (Romans 6:3-4; Galatians 2:20). He learns to say no to the irreverent life devoid of religion. He also sets aside worldly desire (1 John 2:15-17). In place of those, he lives a self-controlled, law abiding life. His disposition will be set in the direction of pleasing God while he lives on earth (Titus 2:12).
