Grace Is Not A License To Live Any Way
- False teachers in Jude's day turned grace into license and denied Christ's authority.
- Antinomianism and independence both undermine the gospel by separating salvation from obedient discipleship.
A Dorm Room Moment Of Conversion
- Jason Helopoulos recounts becoming a Christian in college after resisting atheism and being invited to a fellowship.
- A moment of self-control—remembering 'Jesus would not have me do this'—confirmed his new identity and ethic.
