Tt2

"Jesus gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works." v - 14

We are the people of God. We have been bought out of slavery to sin and placed into the community of God. Our hearts have been changed and our activities should demonstrated that reality. Sin should no longer control our lives and worldliness should no longer determine our activity. Being zealous for God and pursuing His agenda is to be our primary agenda.

What would have to happen in our lives before we actually were excited to do the right things? When will we get to the place of maturity where "doing good works" is an overflow of our relationship with God and not act act of "duty"?

God has poured out His Spirit into our lives. He has given us everything we need for life and godliness. The choice is ours today. Will we pursue the things of God? Will we give ourselves for the things that matter?
