Embracing God's Grace: A Guide to Living Sensibly, Righteously, and with Anticipation

God's grace is more than a means to salvation; it calls us to a more profound way of living. Through Titus 2:11-15, we learn to live sensibly by denying ungodliness and worldly lusts. This scripture emphasizes the importance of common sense grounded in doctrine, applying righteousness, and empowering godliness in our daily lives. Furthermore, we are encouraged to live with anticipation for Christ's glorious return and to recognize our redeemed status through His sacrifice. Embrace this calling to live for His glory and purpose.

  1. Quality of Life

  2. TEXT: Titus 2:11-15 God’s grace has as its purpose salvation. But the teaching of God’s Word indicates that its purpose is broader than mere salvation. It includes:

  3. Living Sensibly (2:12) • Denying ungodliness (ungodliness is living without regard for God’s standards) • Denying worldly lusts (giving in to worldly lusts is living without regard for our own tendencies to do that which is not right) • Live with: • Common sense – based upon teaching (2Tim 3:16 “doctrine”) • Righteously – based upon application (“reproof, correction, instruction in…”) • Godliness – based upon empowering (“equipped” cf Gal 5:22ff)

  4. II. Live with Anticipation (2:13) • Looking for Christ’s Return (1 Thess 4:16ff) • This return is imminent (Luke 12:39) • His return will be glorious, not as a Babe but in the triumph of the Resurrection and Ascension (Acts 1:11)

  5. III. Live as Redeemed (2:14) • Because Christ gave His life for us • His purpose was to purify us • His purpose was to use us • His purpose was to enable us to live for His glory
