I have a stong conviction that the gospel and the christian way of life is all about Jesus and nothing about us. We are just a clay/earthen vessel that is prepared to hold the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit at work within us that glorifies God! We are nothing without Him. Filthy rags or a pile of dung! Our works are wood, hay and stubble unless we are working out our salvation by the power of the Holy Spirit. When we add ourselves in to the equation we are adding sin and cancelling out the faith alone in Christ alone. The Holy Spirit is actually the person that gives us the faith that is efficacious for our salvation. So genuine saving faith points away from ourselves to the power of God the Holy Spirit. We are NOTHING but indebted to our Lord and Saviour for having favour on His creation. For we neither earn it nor deserve it, but God in His grace gives it freely to whom He calls!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6058212.post-1143002546699479842006-03-21T22:42:00.000-06:002006-03-21T22:42:00.000-06:00Hey dear! thanks so much for the comment.
