God's grace is not a license to sin, but the power to live a holy life.

In his quote, Paul Washer beautifully encapsulates the essence of God's grace. He emphasizes that God's grace is not a free pass to engage in sinful behaviors with impunity, but rather, it is the empowering force that enables individuals to pursue a life of holiness. Washer emphasizes that God's grace is not a mere concept or an abstract idea; it is a tangible power that influences one's thoughts, actions, and desires. Understanding this, we realize that grace is not something to be taken lightly, but a transformative gift that calls us to live purposefully, striving to reflect God's righteousness through our choices and interactions with others. Paul Washer's profound quote serves as a reminder that God's grace empowers us to live holy lives and prompts us to uphold the moral standards that align with His divine nature.

"For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. "

Jude 4

===================

"False teachers aren't necessarily even that obvious.

They don't wear badges identifying themselves as apostates.

They usually try hard not to stand out as enemies of the truth.

They pretend devotion to Christ and demand tolerance from Christ's followers.

They are often extremely likeable, persuasive, and articulate people.

According to Jude, that is what makes apostasy such an urgent matter of concern for the church.

It produces people who can infiltrate the church by "[creeping] in unnoticed."

Paradoxically, people sometimes imagine today that there are no such things as false teachers and apostates, since Christianity has become so broad and all-embracing.

There is no need to engage in a battle for the truth——since truth itself is infinitely pliable and thus capable of making room for everyone's views.

Some have even suggested that truth is broad enough to accommodate all well-intentioned ideas from non-Christian religions.

The problem of apostasy, then, is especially acute in the radically tolerant climate of today's postmodern drift."
