Falls Presbyterian Church (OPC)

A fundamental implication of the gospel of grace is that we belong to Christ. 1. Because we belong to Christ, there are two kinds of boasting: proper and improper. (v.7-11,13-17) 2. Because we belong to Christ, any comparisons are odious. (v.12) 3. Because we belong to Christ, it is only commendation by the Lord that makes us approved. (v.18) What is the significance of us belonging to Christ? From where does our grace come from? Eph. 4:7 In what is wrong boasting based? Jer. 9:23-24 Any vain boasting in heaven? Rev. 4:8b,11,5:9-10, 7:9-10
