Stop Bargaining with God
Your breakthrough is not waiting on more effort. Stop paying God for what grace already gave, and start receiving.
Topic
Grace, Sin & the Law
Grace is not a reward for your effort. It is what God did for you at the cross, finished and complete. This is Leon du Preez's teaching on the finished work of Jesus: why your sins are forgiven (past, present and future), why the Law could never make you righteous, and why grace is not a licence to sin but the power to overcome it. Start here if you are tired of trying to earn what Jesus already paid for, if condemnation still sounds like the voice of God, or if you were taught to re-dedicate your life every Sunday. Every teaching below explores these truths through Scripture. Read one, and stop working for what is already yours.
