Jerry Bridges on Salvation Grace and Living Grace

"My observation of Christendom is that most of us tend to base our personal relationship with God on our performance instead of on His grace. If we've performed well - whatever "well" is in our opinion - then we expect God to bless us. If we haven't done so well, our expectations are reduced accordingly. In this sense we live by works rather than by grace. We are saved by grace but we are living by the "sweat" of our own performance".

Peter Day on Christian Identity

"If you are a Christian today - you are NO ordinary person! You have the very Presence of heaven by the Holy Spirit in your life! So there is power ... for transformed attitudes and transformed speech and the purpose of this is that there will be unity in the Church because where there is unity, God commands the blessing!".
