Christian Maturity

 (ID: 2021)

Christian faith begins when we realize that we are great sinners and that Christ is a great Savior. Once saved, we begin the lifelong process of sanctification—which can feel overwhelming if we view others as perfect. Sensitive to this, Paul assured his readers that he was still a work in progress. Maturing faith, teaches Alistair Begg, is grounded in the understanding that we are called by God, kept by Christ, and can persevere on the strength of Scripture’s promises.
