					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: Won’t too much grace lead to even more sinning? Some believe an overemphasis on God’s grace will somehow lead to more sinning in the Christian life. But Titus 2:11-12 says the opposite: Grace is what encourages godly living. So, we need more grace, not less, if we want to overcome temptation. Being afraid of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: What role does obedience play in the Christian life? Many have tried to create a friction between the concepts of grace and obedience. However, grace and obedience are related and beautifully compatible. Romans 6:17 states that we believers have become “obedient from the heart.” By grace, we have been gifted with a new, righteous [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: What are spiritual disciplines? While many promote the importance of the so-called “spiritual disciplines”, the phrase is not found in the Bible. Instead, Scripture teaches the importance of a relationship with God that flows naturally out of grace (Titus 2:11-14). So, we can choose to pray, read the Bible, etc. because we desire to, [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: When did the New Covenant begin? The New Covenant began at the death of Christ (Luke 22:20; Hebrews 9:16). This means Jesus lived and ministered under the Old Covenant (Galatians 4:4). This is why some of Jesus’ teachings expose the true spirit of the Old Testament law. Diving Deeper: Once we have finished reading the Old Testament, we [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: What is the New Covenant? The Bible teaches the new covenant is a promise that God made to Himself to save completely all who believe in Jesus (Hebrews 6:13-18). It is the promise of total forgiveness for all sins (Hebrews 8:12); a new heart (Ezekiel 36:26-27; Hebrews 8:10); freedom from the Old Covenant law [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: How can you love God more? We’ve all heard we need to love God more and prove our love for Him. Some of us have even heard that we are to love God more than our own families! But this concept is actually absent from the New Testament. Scripture never encourages a new-hearted believer [&#8230;]]]></description>

New Testament grace giving is founded upon our freedom in Christ. We are not under the Law or any spiritual regulation requiring that we give a certain amount. [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Quick Answer: What does it mean to be “dead to the Law”? At salvation, believers are crucified with Christ. As a result, we die to the Law, and consequently we die to sin. Once we’re taken out from under the dominion of the Law, sin no longer has power over us. As the Scripture states: “apart [&#8230;]]]></description>
