Growth in Grace

“When the New Testament speaks about the fullness of grace which we find in Christ, it does not mean only forgiveness, pardon and justification. Christ has done much more for us. He died for us, but he also lived for us. Now he has sent his own Spirit to us so that we might draw on his strength. He grew in grace, and when we draw on his power we shall likewise grow in grace.”

- Sinclair B. Ferguson, Grow in Grace (Carlisle, Pa.: Banner of Truth Trust, 1989), 10.

  1. I just want to say thank you and don’t stop putting these quotes up. I can’t tell you how many mornings I’ve felt light flood my thoughts after reading and thinking on what these men are saying. It is probably one of the best parts of my day.
