Searching for grace is a comic strip that revolves around the conversations of a Christian named John and his Pastor.
John attends a small 200 member Pentecostal church. He loves the good news of God’s grace. He also loves and respects his Pastor, but unfortunately never hears the gospel from him. He continually tries, with little success, to convince his pastor to bring the finished work of Jesus back to the centre of his messages. His greatest challenge is trying to help his Pastor see the importance of not mixing the Old Covenant mentality of Law with the New Covenant reality of Grace.
John’s Pastor is Pastor Moses, who is consumed with his own religious ideas and driven by the possibility of being a mega-church Pastor one day! He loves reading ‘church growth’ and ‘Christian leadership’ books, and is convinced if he can just follow these keys, laws and principles he can fulfill his dream of building a big church one day.
John is searching for grace. Pastor Moses is searching for people to help him build his church service. It’s a recipe for disaster – but millions of fellow Christians around the world are cheering John on!
Maybe, just maybe John will succeed one day in helping his Pastor see the light.
Manny Jack, something does not ring true in the way you have used Rom 3:31. You make it sound like we need to keep the law once we are saved? “Rather, we uphold the law” is in reference to the way of faith being the answer the law requires. Reading Rom 3 v 27-28 only makes sense in this context.
Hey Mick I hope people find grace, but dont forget the Law has only been done away with as a way of earning salvation. Once saved the law is not abolished but it is upheld.
Rom 3 :31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
