TALK ABOUT IT.
There are two fatal errors in the Christian walk.
One ditch says we are saved by works — that our obedience earns acceptance with God. Scripture is clear: “By the works of the law no flesh shall be justified” (Rom 3:20). Legalism produces fear, pride, or despair — but never life.
The other ditch says we are saved in sin — that grace excuses disobedience. But grace was never permission to remain enslaved. “Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid” (Rom 6:1–2). Lawless grace promises freedom but leaves the soul in bondage.
The narrow way is different.
We are saved by grace through faith (Eph 2:8–10). But that grace does not leave us where it found us. It saves us from sin, not in it. “Sin shall not have dominion over you” (Rom 6:14).
True righteousness by faith produces obedience — not as a means of salvation, but as its fruit.
There is only one narrow path.
And it leads to life.
