How does a person go from being spiritually dead to passionately devoted? If you're thinking it has something to do with the Gospel and the Spirit's power, you'd be right. But before we get to the Good News, we need the bad news.

God's law is more all encompassing that we realise. We are more incapable of being good than we'd like to admit. That's why we know that the Gospel is 100 percent God's work from first to last. The grace of God that saves us is the same grace that changes us. It's the grace that gets us off the sidelines and into the game. Grace works.
