Truth and Sin – Oswald Chambers
It is perilously easy to have amazing sympathy with God’s truth and remain in sin.

True Grace – Randy Alcorn
Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable sinning is not biblical grace. God’s grace never encourages us to live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and yes to truth.
