Today, I heard a portion of a message from Proverbs by Alistair Begg which illustrated how coming to terms with the truth of our own depravity can be liberating. I encourage you to go to the link high lighted here "Warning Against Adultery, Part B Proverbs 5". At the beginning of the message Begg's quotes Ann Atkins concerning how she was and is liberated by the truth of total depravity.
When we choose to humble ourselves before God and the truth of God, then we position ourselves to receive His abundant grace. Realizing that our souls have been so stained by the power of sin that we are capable of the most vile dishonoring acts against God is the beginning place for receiving grace to live in victory over sin.
(James 4:6 NIV) But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble."
For His glory and our eternal joy in Christ,
John
