Naracoorte Presbyterian Church

“When Paul preached that we are justified by grace through faith and not through works of the law, he likewise caused offence and was accused of giving people licence to sin. When we preach that God’s saving mercy towards us is entirely unmerited but entirely available to the guiltiest sinner only on the grounds of repentance and faith, we will likewise meet the offended response of hurt pride or sheer incredulity. If we never do meet such response, we need to check if we are preaching the truly biblical gospel of God’s grace.”
