Simply By Grace Ch. 8 - Grace and Good Works
January 12, 2022 • charlie, fred lybrand
Charlie reads through his book Simply By Grace with a special guest interview and discussion time at the end of the podcast. In this podcast Charlie reads through Chapter 8 - Grace and Good Works. In it he focuses on the difference between grace and works. What are they and how do good works fit into the salvation picture? Ephesians 2:10 speaks of our purpose in salvation. It says that we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works... good works come after salvation and are intended to be an outpouring of what Christ has done for us. So, while good works are not a condition for salvation, they are a consequence of salvation. However, they aren't to be used as proof of salvation as good works can vary extensively. Charlie goes on to have a discussion with Dr. Fred Lybrand who has pastored a number of churches and written a number of books on this topic specifically and the book of James. Some questions in the discussion that are raised are what is a good work? What is a bad work? What are live works and dead works? How does a person's motivation play into works? Can it prove a person's salvation? Are good works important to an unbeliever and also a believer? Does every Christian do good works? They also touch on common cliche's like "It's faith alone but the faith that saves is never alone." http://...what does that mean and who said it? Fred has a ministry called Back to Faith which you can visit here. If you've never heard of Charlie's book, Simply By Grace, you can order it online. There's also a Spanish edition available!

Simply By Grace Ch. 9 - A New Accountability
January 19, 2022 • Charlie Bing, Roger Fankhauser
Charlie reads through his book Simply By Grace with a special guest interview and discussion time at the end of the podcast. In this podcast Charlie reads through Chapter 9 - A New Accountability. When a person believes in Christ for salvation, who do they have to answer to and what should their motivation be to serve Christ? How do rewards fit into this? Should they be motivated by works or by grace or by rewards? Contrary to common belief, grace doesn't teach license; some people think an emphasis on Grace will produce a Christian who will live however they want. These people motivate a believer from the negative, often making them believe if they don't do good works, salvation must not have been bestowed upon the believer. But this misunderstands grace. Grace teaches us to be responsible for the grace we have received. Charlie addresses this and focuses on the positive and negative motivations to serve. At the end he speaks with Dr. Roger Fankhauser on the motivations for serving and how to deal with sin in your life and in the lives of others. He is a former pastor and author of several books on topics of grace and serving God. If you've never heard of Charlie's book, Simply By Grace, you can order it online.

Simply By Grace Ch.10 - A New Life
January 26, 2022 • Charlie Bing, Jeremy Vance
In this podcast Charlie reads through Chapter 10 - A New Life. Grace has given us the free gift of salvation, so now what do we do with it? Enjoy it! Many Christians understand how grace plays a role in our salvation. However, many don't understand how it's also central to our sanctification, or our Christian walk and growth. The Christian life is a life of faith, and we walk with Christ. This walk is part of the sanctification process through which we need grace.

Simply By Grace Ch. 11 - A New Commitment
February 22, 2022 • Charlie Bing, Cody Wallace
In this podcast Charlie reads through Chapter 11 - A New Commitment. As we enjoy a new life in Christ, we can also enjoy a new purpose. Jesus challenged believers to be disciples. The great commission in Matthew 28:18-20 focuses on making disciples. Jesus called unbelievers to salvation and called believers to discipleship. One follows the other, one is free the one that follows is hard work. One is directed to unbelievers, the other believers. Keeping them distinct is key to growing in Christ; so, find out more about what discipleship is but maybe more importantly what it is not. So, find out more as Charlie follows his discussion with an interview with Cody Wallace. Cody is pastor of Southwest Community Church in Miami, he has a book available called Break the Mold a ministry called Transformed365 If you've never heard of Charlie's book, Simply By Grace, you can order it online.

Simply By Grace Ch.12 - A New Freedom
February 9, 2022 • Charlie Bing, Ed Underwood
What is freedom worth to you? Many have given their lives for it. Many long for it, still others who have it, abuse it. Many don't understand it, and few treasure it. But what about spiritual freedom? What does that mean as a believer? Freedom from what? Should it be treasured or feared? Believers are often taught to fear grace as part of the Christian walk. When people speak about grace there always seems to be a caviat; "better be careful with http://grace...that can lead to license." Grace is ultimately risky, as with ANY freedom. Too many live fearfully thinking God is displeased with them and they fall into the trap of trying to do good to make-up for the bad. Grace sets us free though, it's the antedote to slavery and a doorway to freedom in Christ! We are free to be all that God made us to be and free to love. You don't want to miss this episode as Charlie speaks with Ed Underwood, an Army vet, Theologian, and former pastor of Church of the Open Door. This was the church made famous by J. Vernon McGee who was also a former pastor in southern California. Ed started a ministry called Recentered, a grace-based ministry geared towards training leaders within the church. Recentered Group was born in 2016 with Ed as the Executive Officer and Lead Counselor. Since then, he has helped numerous pastors and church leadership teams to recenter their ministries.
