GOSPEL OF INTEGRITY:
You were saved by grace; now you need to live
accordingly because you wouldn't want to risk losing your salvation. Go
to church on Sunday, read the Bible every day, stop smoking, stop
swearing, don't sleep around, don't get a divorce and be sure to
evangelise your friends. All these things will make you look like a good
churchy-Christian, and no one will question your salvation.
GOSPEL OF GRACE:
Jesus did it; now believe it! You'll live accordingly - gradually - as
God works in you to naturally produce fruit, BUT DON'T TRY. The more you
try to follow the law, the more you WILL FAIL. Let Jesus do it for you
and in you. Your only role is to believe and therefore receive - and if
you feel like you can't believe, ask Jesus to believe for you and in
you, because even BELIEF IS NOT A WORK!
