The Gospel in Action
Paul's letter to Philemon is a wonderful example of how we can apply the gospel to everyday problems. One of the applications we see in this letter relates to relationships, especially those that have conflict. There is a rift in the relationship between Philemon and his slave Onesimus. And Paul wants the two of them to be reconciled. And so he not only encourages reconciliation, he also explains how God empowers that reconciliation. And in doing so, he helps us see how God can empower reconciliation and forgiveness in our own relationships and how God gives us others to encourage us to live in the way God empowers us to live.

2 Samuel 12 - Reconciliation and Greater Grace
God has planned a work in creating and redeeming a people for Himslef. God is seeking and reconciling sinners to himself by grace. David ... all » was reconciled to God in 2 Samuel 12 through the revelation of sin. David experienced reconciling grace and learned that 1) God is seeking sinners, 2) God has a effective strategy to bring repentance, 3) God disciplines with furios grace, 4) God give eternal forgiveness, 5) God gives greater grace to bring one to trust him more. Christians must realize that God will not let them stay in a state of sin. God can over come our rebellion effectively. The secular person will never have the assurance of forgiviness of their guilt until they experience furious grace that will bring them to faith in God through Jesus Christ. Watch and listen to this exposition of 2 Samuel 12.
