Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(Rom 2:23) “Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?”  The act of “boasting” signals the blindness of heart and error of thinking. Contrast this with the following:  (Eph 2:8) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (9)  Not of works, lest any man should boast.” The heart of the truly saved know they have nothing to boast of. It was not their merit that purchased the gift of eternal life, but the blood of God’s Son. “Grace” means “favor bestowed but not deserved”. Boast instead of a Savior that saved even a sinner like you.
