Jesus
the Savior Today's
Three-minute Bible Study
Read the following
Bible passage, then answer the short questions. Consider
the practical suggestions at the end of the
study. Passage:
Titus
3:5-7* 6. whom He poured out upon us
richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7. that being justified by His
grace we might be made heirs according to the hope of
eternal life. Questions 2. What do you understand about
grace from these verses? Practical
help These verses don’t speak as
much about what we have been saved from as to what we
have been saved to. Certainly Jesus has saved us from
the penalty of our sins and the eternal destruction
that we deserved. That in itself is cause for
incredible rejoicing. Jesus has also made us heirs of
eternal life and recipients of all of God’s
blessings (see Ephesians 1). That’s grace! If you
have some doubt about where you stand with God and
whether you have been saved by Jesus or not, please
click
here to clear up
that doubt. Trying on your own to clean up
the porn mess in your life is not what will ultimately
make a difference with God. We’ll never be
commended to God by good deeds or trying to live
right, so you can just relax! It’s all dependent
upon His mercy and the grace extended to us. Rejoice
in your salvation, and rest in His grace. Jesus is at
work, and the grip of porn can’t hold you when
your eyes are on Him. The right living will follow as
you learn to abide and rest in Jesus and His grace to
you!

strong in the face of sexual temptation.5. He saved us, not on the
basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness,
but according to His mercy, by the washing of
regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
1. What did Jesus save us
from? What did He save us to?
Our attempts to make the
grade with God by doing good things (or by doing fewer
bad things) could never be enough. He is holy, and we
simply fall short. He saved us. It was His initiative,
His accomplishment, and His suffering for our sins.
