Title: Grace Is Infuriating
Scripture: Matthew 20:1-16
Speaker: Bill Gorman, BillG@ChristCommunityKC.org


>> Grace is infuriating.

- Grace can’t be earned
>> Grace is infuriating.
- Grace isn’t fair
- Grace can’t be earned
- Grace makes us give up control
If I was saved by my good works then there would be a limit to what God could ask of me or put me through. I would be like a taxpayer with “rights”—I would have done my duty and now I would deserve a certain quality of life. But if I am sinner saved by sheer grace—then there’s nothing he cannot ask of me.
—Tim Keller, The Reason for God
>> Grace Is Our Only Hope
- So stop earning—in grace all is gift
- So stop comparing—in grace there’s only one audience
- So stop hoarding—in grace we give what we’re received
