Insight:\u00a0\u00a0Titus 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.\u201d (Tit 3:5)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insight one: Why did the Lord Jesus want to save us? Is it because we have accomplished something for Him? No! Is it because we are lovable? No! It is not because we are any better, but because of His mercy and the riches of the grace (Eph 2:8-9). From an objective perspective of the truth, if someone is in Christ, he is a new creation (2Co 5:17). Salvation is God’s gift, and no one can earn the salvation by one\u2019s own deeds. But out of a subjective experience, after we have believed in the Lord, we then should obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit and through Him, our lives will continue to renew. 

Insight two: Although Christians are in this world, yet why do they not belong to this world? We are citizens of the kingdom of heaven. Our identities as children of God are not part of this world. Although we do not belong to this world, yet we proactively face the world and not passively evade this world. The Christians\u2019 mission is not to improve this world, but to lead and save people out of this world. We have an honorable status in this world, and at the same time have borne a great mission, which is to preach the gospel and to lead people to the Lord.  

Prayer: God heavenly Father, thank You for the riches of Your mercy. There is nothing to boast about my receiving of Your grace. Please help me and let me be grateful. I will make good use of the time given to me and live a godly life, cherish every moment to witness Your greatness, preach Your salvation. The ultimate purpose is to glorify Your Holy Name. I pray in the precious name of Jesus Christ, Amen!<\/p>", "protected": false }, "excerpt": { "rendered": "
