Grace appeared

Titus 2:11&12 For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people. And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God.
         This shows me that i cannot continue to sin. I cannot continue making the same mistakes because God's grace has appeared and now I must say "no" to ungodliness and to live a self-controlled, upright and godly life. Now that God's grace has appeared to me when I do sin He pulls on me and I have guilt. Because now I don't find worldly pleasures at all pleasing.

Romans 3:23&24 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard. Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous , He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
         Teaches me that only God is perfect. EVERYONE is a sinner (from the beginning) and we all fall short of God's standard. But in verse 24 it tells me God knows this and GIVES me an undeserved kindness and tells me i am righteous because I am free of sin through Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 6:1 As God's partners we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God's kindness and then ignore it.
         Says to me that if I am with God that to accept this gift in vain is bad and that if I am to love God why should I receive his grace in vain.

    So, I am a sinner. Before grace appeared I fell short of God's glory. Also i was an enemy of God (because God is holy and cannot dwell with evil) yet by NATURE I am deserving of God's wrath. But through the punishment of Christ (grace appearing) I am set free from sin. Now that God's grace has appeared I cannot continue to sin or live like I am of this world. Now, I say "no" to ungodliness and love a self-controlled, upright and godly life. Now I must live a more godly life, and in doing so I am displaying the character of God (beautifying Christ). I don't accept God's grace in vain. I have humbled myself to Him and I have 'let God.' Because as God's partners we should strive to live a more godly life devoted to Him because grace teaches us what is really important.
