Loved, Chosen, and Accountable: Walking in Grace and Truth,

reviewed part 2

Before I begin, I want to make something clear: my intent is not to judge, condemn, or point fingers. I write from a place of love, out of a desire to help others see truth clearly. I also speak from experience—having been on the receiving end of serious discipline, I have wrestled with sin and endured correction firsthand. I do not claim to have arrived; the process continues to have a profoundly positive effect on my life, shaping my character, influencing my decisions, and deepening my walk with God. I believe it will continue to play its part in my life, even to the death of the flesh. I speak not as one who theorises about obedience or grace, but as someone who has been humbled, strengthened, and transformed by the Father’s hand. I hope that this post will encourage, warn, and guide, not shame. These are thoughts and concerns I have carried for some time, and over the coming weeks, we will continue to explore them carefully. Not emotionally. Not defensively. But biblically.

God hates sin. Not on a whim. Not to assert power. But because sin destroys. “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). Sin blinds, hardens, and separates. “Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing” (Habakkuk 1:13). God’s hatred of sin is not cruelty — it is love that refuses to let His children walk into ruin.

And yet, even while we were sinners, God’s love was already active. “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). His love is not a reward for good behaviour; it flows from His nature. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son” (John 3:16).

God’s election reminds us that salvation is His work from beginning to end. “For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 1:4–5). Election is not an excuse for sin; it is the foundation of grace.

At the same time, Scripture never removes human responsibility. “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out” (Acts 3:19). “If you love me, keep my commands” (John 14:15). God’s sovereignty does not cancel obedience. Election and responsibility are not enemies—they work together.

Grace, therefore, is powerful — but it is never permission. Paul confronts this directly: “Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means!” (Romans 6:1–2). True grace transforms. “The grace of God… teaches us to say ‘No’ to ungodliness and worldly passions” (Titus 2:11–12). Where grace is present, change follows.

This brings us to discipline — one of the most neglected truths in the modern Church. “The Lord disciplines the one he loves” (Hebrews 12:6). Discipline is not rejection; it is proof of sonship. Scripture is direct: “If you are not disciplined… then you are not legitimate, not true sons” (Hebrews 12:8). A father who never corrects is not loving — he is indifferent.

This must be understood soberly. I did not hide my sin; I confessed it. It was known. It was addressed. And yet, despite confession, I continued in the same pattern of sexual sin. This exposes a difficult but necessary truth: confession alone does not automatically break the power of the flesh. Paul gives words to that struggle: “For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing” (Romans 7:19).

Because of that persistence, discipline became severe. Paul writes of a man being handed over to Satan “for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 5:5). That verse should never be quoted lightly. It speaks of serious, last-resort correction — not to destroy a man, but to save him.

This was discipline because of sexual immorality — not hidden, not denied, but repeated. The aim was not humiliation or abandonment. The aim was the destruction of the flesh — the unchecked desires that were leading towards ruin. And the verse must always be read to the end: “so that his spirit may be saved.” Even here, the purpose is redemption.

The flesh hated this process. Mine did. It resisted, argued, and fought. “The flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit” (Galatians 5:17). I was not looking for grace to escape the discipline, but grace to endure it without becoming bitter. “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble” (James 4:6). Grace did not remove the pressure — it sustained me under it.

The discipline itself was not always delivered perfectly. Human weakness and mixed motives are part of any earthly process. Yet Scripture proved true: “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good” (Genesis 50:20). God did not excuse what was flawed, nor did He waste what was painful. He remained fully in control of the process, the pressure, and the outcome.

I am deeply grateful to God my Father for His discipline. Discipline did not distance me from God — it grounded me in Him. It removed self-deception and taught me that holiness matters, obedience matters, and grace is never cheap.

Discipline for the believer is not condemnation. Christ has already borne that judgment. “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). Discipline is training. “Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it” (Hebrews 12:11).

The absence of discipline should concern us more than its presence. If there is no conviction, no wrestling with sin, no grief when we wander, Scripture does not offer comfort — it calls for examination. “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

This is the full gospel:

• God hates sin because it destroys.
• God loves sinners, even in rebellion.
• God elects, and His choice secures salvation.
• Humans are responsible — to repent, believe, and obey.
• Grace transforms; it never excuses.
• Discipline proves adoption and restores.
• The absence of discipline calls for sober self-examination.

Love invites.
Repentance responds.
Grace empowers.
Discipline corrects.

This gospel is not cheap. It is not easy. But it is true. Chosen, redeemed, disciplined, and accountable — under the care of a Father whose love refuses to let His children perish.

 

May the love of God be your portion

Loved!

 

These are some of my thoughts and concerns I have considered, and we will spend some time over the next weeks unpacking this…

Loved, Chosen, and Accountable: Walking in Grace and Truth

God hates sin. Not on a whim. Not to assert power. But because sin destroys. “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). Sin blinds, hardens, and separates. “Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing” (Habakkuk 1:13). His hatred of sin is love refusing to let His children walk into ruin.

And yet, even while we were sinners, God’s love was real. “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). His love is not a reward for good behaviour; it flows from His nature. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son” (John 3:16).

God’s election reminds us that salvation is His gift from beginning to end. “For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 1:4-5). Election is not an excuse for sin; it is a foundation for grace.

At the same time, we are called to responsibility. “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out” (Acts 3:19). “If you love me, keep my commands” (John 14:15). God’s sovereignty does not remove human response — election and responsibility work together.

Grace is powerful, but it is never a licence to sin. Paul asked, “Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?” (Romans 6:1-2). True grace transforms and teaches: “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say ‘No’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in this present age” (Titus 2:11-12).

God also disciplines those He loves. “The Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son” (Hebrews 12:6). Discipline is not punishment but proof of adoption, the hand of a Father guiding His children away from destruction. “If you are not disciplined… then you are not legitimate, not true sons” (Hebrews 12:8). If there is no conviction, no wrestling with sin, no hunger for holiness, Scripture warns us to examine our spiritual standing.

The gospel is at once sovereign and demanding. It calls us to see clearly:

• God hates sin because it destroys.

• God loves sinners, even in their rebellion.

• God elects, and His choice secures salvation.

• Humans are responsible — to hear, repent, believe, and obey.

• Grace transforms and empowers, never excuses.

• Discipline proves adoption, restores, and warns.

• Absence of discipline signals a need for self-examination.

Love invites.
Repentance responds.
Grace empowers.
Discipline corrects.

This is the full gospel: not cheap, not easy, but true. Chosen, redeemed, empowered, and accountable — fully under the care of a Father whose heart beats for His children and refuses to let them perish.

He Cares

 

He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7)

Pause and let that sink in. The Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth, bends His ear to hear you, not as a distant ruler, but as a Father who knows every detail of your life. We are called His sons and daughters. What a privilege! What a wonder! And it is all because of the finished work of Jesus Christ. Because of His sacrifice, we can boldly cry “Abba, Father” (Romans 8:15) and know that He hears us. Nothing is lost. Nothing is ignored.

And this is not a casual privilege—it is the most profound reality a believer can know. For thousands of years, no man could approach the Father without a veil. Now, through Christ, we have access. His Spirit lives in us. Jesus reveals the Father. And we can come boldly, confident that He listens and cares.

“Nor was it to offer Himself repeatedly… But as it is, He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.” (Hebrews 9:25-26)

 

Discipline: Proof You Belong

Here is a truth the world will never cheer: God disciplines those He loves. Not out of anger, not out of irritation, but because His children matter.

“For the Lord disciplines the one He loves, and He chastises every son whom He receives.” (Hebrews 12:6)

Do not ignore this. To be without discipline is to be illegitimate, not a son (Hebrews 12:8). The world mocks correction, complains about boundaries and celebrates freedom without responsibility. But God’s Word is clear: discipline is proof of belonging. It is the Father shaping us into Christlikeness.

Every correction, every conviction, every piercing word of the Spirit is mercy. It is His hand guiding, protecting, and shaping you. The High Priest understands, for He Himself was tempted in every way, yet without sin (Hebrews 4:15).

Discipline is not punishment—it is formation. It is not rejection—it is love. And in a generation that shuns accountability, the disciplined life marks those who truly belong to God.

 

Blessings Beyond Wealth

Now hear this carefully: God’s blessings are not judged by wealth. Absolutely not. In fact, the Lord sometimes blesses through apparent scarcity. He reminds us:

“The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” (Luke 9:58)

And yet, His provision is perfect:

“Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?” (Luke 12:24)

True blessings are faithfulness, peace, spiritual growth, obedience, and alignment with His will. Material wealth does not define His care. The richest life may look like poverty to the world, yet be overflowing in His kingdom. Discipline often prepares us for the blessings we cannot yet see.

 

Standing Firm Against the Noise of the World

Turn on the radio, scroll social media, or watch the news—everywhere there are voices opposed to God’s truth. They preach self-gratification, freedom without boundaries, and obedience as a form of oppression. They call conviction “shame” and holiness “legalism.”

But we are not governed by opinions, by culture, or by perception; we are governed by Scripture.

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 3:16)

Let the world shout. Let voices rise. Let culture mock. You have a Father whose Word is ultimate. You have a Son who intercedes for you. You have a Spirit who teaches you. And you have the assurance that discipline, care, and blessing all flow from His perfect love.

 

The Gift No One Wants but Every Son Needs

Discipline is a gift. Proof you are His. Proof you belong. Proof that He cares. And blessing is far more than wealth. It is faithfulness. Peace. Obedience. Spiritual growth. Provision in every need according to His perfect plan.

“Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:6-7)

Receive it. Cherish it. Walk in it. The Father disciplines because He loves. The Son has opened the way. The Spirit guides. And all His blessings, measured by eternity, cannot fail.

He cares for you. He disciplines because He loves. He calls you His own. He blesses beyond measure, not by the world’s standards, but by His perfect Word.

Walk in that truth today.

 

“Peace to all of you who are in Christ.”

The Rudder...

The Rudder of Obedience

There’s a pattern throughout Scripture that makes me pause whenever God’s people drifted into evil, and consequences followed. Not because God is cruel, but because He is holy. Look at Israel—fresh out of forty years of miraculous provision, and the moment they turned aside, God delivered them into the hands of the Midianites. They weren’t free to live however they pleased and still expect His blessing.

And yet… how often do we do exactly that? How often do we cry out for favour while refusing to confront our own behaviour?

For New Testament believers, this becomes even more layered because of the finished work of the cross. “It is finished.” Not poetic language—actual reality. Salvation accomplished. The blood of the Lamb covers His people. The resurrection sealed it, witnessed and confirmed beyond legal dispute—though our faith never depended on the courtroom. If this work has been finished in Christ, and it has, then the real question stands before us: How should we live?

This is where deception finds cracks in our armour. Our selfish wants. Our excuses. The small compromises that grow into strongholds. I’ve often spoken about the “mirror” in my own life—looking into it honestly and asking God to show me who I truly am. Skip this step, and we’re no different from the ostrich burying its head in the sand when pressure closes in.

We say we love the Lord—and I believe many do—but without obedience, that confession gets thin and hollow. Jesus made it painfully plain:

“If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word… Whoever does not love Me does not keep My word.”
(John 14:23–24)

And again:

“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”
(John 14:15)

These verses trip many of us up—including me at times. But thank God for His kindness that leads us to repentance. Thank God that when His children come in humility, mercy flows like a river.

It’s worth noting that John, known as the disciple of love, is the very one who connects love and obedience. The man who leaned on Jesus’ chest, the one who wrote more about love than anyone else, reminds us that love without obedience is incomplete. Real love responds to Christ with a yielded heart. Obedience isn’t about perfection—it’s about direction. God disciplines His children not to condemn but to guide, keeping our hearts soft, teachable, and hungry for Him. When love and obedience walk together, faith is alive, active, and fruitful.

Still, there must come a point where we admit that God’s commandments aren’t optional extras—they are the rudder of our lives. Ignore the rudder, and we drift. Embrace it, and we walk in truth. If altars of Baal have crept into our lives—altars of self, compromise, comfort—we tear them down just as Gideon did. No excuses.

And here Solomon steps in with timeless clarity. The wisest man who ever lived summed up the posture every believer must have:

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”
(Proverbs 9:10)

Not cleverness. Not discipline. Not religious activity. Wisdom begins with honouring God—revering Him, esteeming Him, bowing before Him. Lose the fear of the Lord, and you lose the foundation of a godly life.

But we must also consider another truth God has given us:

“Perfect love casts out fear.”
(1 John 4:18)

This is not a contradiction; it is a revelation of balance. The fear Scripture commands is not the fear Scripture casts out. Reverent fear draws us near. Tormenting fear drives us away. One produces obedience, the other produces panic.

Perfect love removes the terror of judgment because the judgment we deserve has already fallen on Christ. The wrath that should have crushed us was absorbed at Calvary. So, the believer stands before God without dread—loved, accepted, redeemed.

We now live in two powerful realities:

Reverence that shapes obedience.
Confidence anchored in His love.

Lose reverence, and compromise overtakes us.
Lose confidence, and condemnation controls us.

But when these truths walk hand in hand, our faith stands strong. We obey because we love Him. We draw near because He first loved us. Perfect love does not remove reverence—it removes terror. And that is freedom purchased by Christ Himself.

A storm is coming. Scripture is clear about that. And like any soldier worth his salt, we need sharpened skills and settled convictions before the battle breaks. For me, it’s time—past time—to put God first without apology or delay. “Let God be true and every man a liar.” My desire is simple: to please my heavenly Father with my conduct and obedience. Pray for me in this pursuit; I need it.

To understand God’s character, we must read the Scriptures. The law—yes, the Torah itself—reveals dimensions of His holiness, justice, patience, and faithfulness that modern believers often overlook. It is there, in those early pages, that we learn the fear of the Lord and the seriousness of His call.

ME!

Me, me, me… why is everything about me?

My prayers often orbit around my own struggles. It’s far easier to intercede for others when the pressure of life isn’t sitting on my chest. But when the weight comes—financial strain, the daily fight against sin, the mental battles that never seem to clock out—suddenly every prayer becomes a desperate plea for personal rescue.

I know the principle behind it all. Romans 12:1–2 is not foreign to me. Present your body as a living sacrifice. Do not be conformed. Be transformed. Yes, I understand it. But understanding a principle and living it out under pressure are two very different realities. That’s why returning to Scripture is not optional. Without the Word of God guiding us, restraining us, correcting us, and comforting us—who would ever find their way through the madness of life?

“Reaction to action” echoes through my mind. “If only…” flashes in the background. But thank God that “Jesus in my place” shouts louder than all my internal noise. Still, even that doesn’t magically dissolve the weight. There’s this ongoing whisper in my heart: life and then some…

We’ve been commanded, not suggested, not to worry about tomorrow. The call to arms is simple: by faith. By faith we walk, by faith we stand, by faith we overcome. And yes, on paper, that sounds beautifully uncomplicated. But the practical—where we actually live, breathe, fail, repent, and get up again—that’s the battlefield. Without that practical outworking of faith, Scripture is clear: we are in danger of the Lake of Fire. This all begins with faith in an unseen God.

We have clues of His brilliance—the creation that preaches louder than any human voice—but we have never seen God with our physical eyes. We do not see spirits moving, angels warring, or demons lurking. Yet we believe. And this belief—this faith—is the key to salvation. It is the door to being born again. It is the gift that grants us spiritual sight.

There must also be gratitude for the work of the Holy Spirit. Without the Spirit’s ministry, thoughts would not be drawn toward Scripture, nor would the truths of God’s Word be brought back to remembrance at the moments they are needed most. Jesus taught plainly on this. He said the Spirit would be our Helper—the One who comes alongside. He promised that the Spirit would “teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” He also referred to the Spirit as the Spirit of Truth, guiding believers into all truth.

And here is something that needs to be said: in many circles—especially among the more Reformed-minded—the work of the Holy Spirit often seems minimised. Not denied, not rejected, but overshadowed. Scripture is rightly upheld as the final authority, but sometimes the emphasis leans so heavily on discipline, systems, knowledge, and routine that the living, daily ministry of the Spirit is pushed into the background. Growth becomes associated with effort—memory verses, study structures, routines—all good things, but none of them can replace the supernatural work of God within the heart.

The danger is subtle: when human effort takes centre stage, the Christian life becomes something we perform rather than something God empowers. But Jesus promised a Helper, not a homework schedule. The Spirit is not an optional extra—He is the very One who gives life, conviction, remembrance, and power. Without His inner work, Scripture becomes information instead of revelation; discipline becomes duty instead of delight; and transformation becomes impossible. A person may memorise a thousand verses, but without the Spirit, those verses remain at the surface level rather than carved into the heart.

This is not abstract teaching; it is the active, ongoing work of God. The Spirit plays a pivotal role in the life of every believer, and this work stands as evidence that faith is alive. Every truth brought back to remembrance testifies that God is shaping His people from within. And this work is also a safeguard, because Scripture warns of the danger of repeatedly resisting conviction. Peter wrote of those whose consciences become seared through continually ignoring sin—hearts hardened, sensitivity to truth dulled, and the voice of God slowly drowned out. The Spirit’s prompting, therefore, is not something to brush aside; it is mercy. It is evidence of God still speaking, still drawing, still rescuing before the heart grows calloused beyond feeling.

To truly grasp salvation, you must first grasp your sin. If sin is minimised, salvation becomes sentimental. God’s purpose for mankind begins with acknowledging our guilt and then believing His Word. Whoever cries out to the Lord will be saved.

And that word “cries” matters. It is not a casual whisper. It is a vocal expression of emotion. A shout. A call for help. A desperate sound that rises from deep within. This is how we must call upon the Lord—anything less risks being hollow—empty—faithless.

Think of Jacob. He wrestled with the angel until dawn, refusing to let go until he received a blessing. It cost him further mobility in his hip, but he would not loosen his grip. There is always a cost to blessings… That’s the kind of cry God responds to—a cry that clings, pleads, refuses to surrender.

And with all this, here is the assurance the Lord Himself gave: “Whoever comes to Me, I will never cast out.”
No one who truly comes, crying out for mercy, is ever turned away by Christ.

Tension

This response responds to a question from a blog reader.

 

The True Currency of Heaven: Grace at the Cross, Faith in Christ, and the Watermark of Obedience

Some of the most sobering and most liberating passages in Scripture sit side by side:

• “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom…” — Matthew 7:21
• “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” — Romans 10:13
• “If it is by grace, it is no longer by works…” — Romans 11:6

At first glance, these verses seem to pull in different directions. But place them beneath the shadow of the cross, and the tension resolves beautifully. They reveal the root, the response, and the evidence of true salvation.

And nothing illustrates this truth more vividly than counterfeit money.

 

1. Grace: The Only Real Currency — Minted in Blood

Every nation recognises its own currency. Anything else—even if convincing—will be rejected. Heaven is no different. Grace alone is the currency God accepts.

But this currency was not printed on paper; it was forged on the cross of Jesus Christ. His obedience was perfect, His righteousness spotless, His suffering sufficient, His resurrection victorious. Salvation cannot be earned, improved, or patched with human effort—any attempt to add works makes the note counterfeit. Grace + works ceases to be grace.

The cross proves it: salvation is all of His work, and none of ours.

 

2. Faith: The Empty Hand That Receives the True Note

Paul says, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Faith is the empty hand extended to the One who has already paid the full price. It is not a ritual or a magic phrase—it is a cry of a bankrupt soul:

“I have nothing to offer. My righteousness is counterfeit. Only Christ can save me.”

Faith does not earn salvation; it receives salvation. It is the act of trusting the currency of grace that Christ produced at Calvary.

 

3. Obedience: The Watermark That Shows the Note Is Real

Matthew 7:21 warns that many will speak and act like believers—saying, “Lord, Lord,” performing religious duties, moving in Christian circles—but their faith is counterfeit. When Christ holds their profession to the light, the watermark of genuine transformation is missing.

Obedience does not save.
Obedience reveals.
True faith, empowered by the Spirit, produces lives that align with God’s will—not to earn salvation, but as proof that the cross has taken root in the heart.

 

4. The Cross That Changes Us: Repentance, Not Perfection

When the crucified Christ becomes our Treasure, sin loses its charm, and His will begins to become our delight. But this does not mean perfection suddenly blooms. The cross creates repentant people, not flawless ones.

We still stumble. We still wrestle with temptation. We still sin.
But the Spirit reshapes our desires: sins we once defended, we now grieve; habits we once excused, we now confess; temptations we once chased, we now drag to the foot of the cross.

Repentance becomes our daily rhythm, not a one-time event. Grace empowers the ongoing battle against sin. The counterfeit believer sins comfortably; the true child of God sins with grief and turns back to Christ continually.

 

5. God Disciplines His Children — Not the Counterfeit

One unmistakable sign of true salvation is the Father’s discipline. Hebrews 12:6 says:

“The Lord disciplines the one He loves…”

Discipline is not punishment—the punishment for sin was paid in full on the cross. It is proof of belonging. The true believer feels conviction, correction, and restoration, whereas the counterfeit feels no Fatherly hand.

Grace trains, refines, and restores. Sin no longer holds its charm, because the Spirit will not let His children remain in darkness. The counterfeit may drift without correction; the child of God will sense the Spirit’s tug, guiding them back to the cross.

 

6. The Three Verses United: Christ at the Centre

• Romans 11:6 — Grace is the currency forged at the cross.
• Romans 10:13 — Faith receives that currency by calling on Christ.
• Matthew 7:21 — Obedience is the watermark proving that the cross has taken hold.

The root is Christ’s work.
The hand that receives is faith.
The fruit is obedience.
The heartbeat is ongoing repentance.
And the glory belongs to Jesus alone.

 

Conclusion: Nothing but Christ

At the end of the age, when every soul stands before Him, the question will not be, “Did you work enough?” or “Did you perform well enough?” It will be, “Did you receive My Son?”

For those who have—those who cling to His cross, treasure His presence, repent daily under His mercy, bear the Spirit’s watermark—the verdict will echo through eternity:

“You are Mine.”

Not because we were perfect,
Not because we paid,
Not because our hands were strong.

Because He was, He paid, He is, and He continues to work in us.

The cross produces no counterfeits.
It produces children.

And every child bears the watermark of the Treasure: Christ Himself.

 

Grace to all who call upon the name of Jesus.
