by Terry Virgo

Book Overview

This wonderful survey of the impact and outworking of God's grace in the life of the believer will revitalise the most threadbare faith. In his early years as a Christian, Terry Virgo experienced "zealous but rather condemnation-driven Christianity". Then, one day, he explains, "I began to grasp the wonder of God's glorious grace.

A Life-Changing Message!

When I first heard Terry Virgo speak on grace, it changed my life. Over time this truth began to transform how I thought & lived. This book captures this wonderful message in a way that teaches & stirs you. It truly is a "too good to be true" message! I particularly liked his approach to living the Christian life founded upon the truth that we "reign in life" because of His love and not one's own works. He also addresses how grace teaches us to live obediently out of grace rather than out of the Law, guilt and the "have-to" mentality so prevalent today. If you're looking to learn to live more fully out of freedom and God's choice to love you...take up and read!

A Balanced View of God's grace from a mature teacher

I would HIGHLY recommend this book for anyone wanting to get a balanced look at God's grace. It has been such a great blessing to me that I have now sent up to a dozen copies to friends around the world. Terry does an excellent job of laying out the reasons why Christians should NOT be wrestling with issues of "the law," but living in such gratitude to Jesus for His sacrifice that their heart's one desire is to please Him. After all, Jesus came to set us free from the law of sin and death. Yet, Terry balances his teaching of grace by pointing out that grace is not a license to sin, but a freedom to enter into dynamic relationship with our merciful God. It is God's intention to free us to live a life guided by His Spirit, eager to follow Christ wherever He calls us. This book is a "must read" for every serious believer!

HOW GREAT A SALVATION

Great book. You'll return to it again and again for hope, encouragement and to treasure the great doctrines of our awesome God and Saviour Jesus Christ. This book makes a great gift and might help a non believer see and savor Christ as Lord and Saviour.
