I've been wanting to write a post about the topic "Cheap Grace". I started to do some general research on the topic and, oh, the humbling I received!
Starting in the New Testament and then generation after generation the problem has been the same. So many wonderful writings, so much truth. I just don't have anything to offer that compares to the writings of these wonderful men of God. Our problem is not a lack of truth, it is simply an unwillingness to follow.
It reminds me of a passage I read in a book many years ago. I googled it and was able to find it:
