In His Likeness...

9 “The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways."(Deuteronomy 28:9 NKJV).

Becoming holy like God is done so by OBEYING His commands. As we do, we begin to look like Him! OBEDIENCE is critical! But this obedience to Him is brought about by choices that are only enabled by His prevenient or enabling grace. As a result, we can take no credit for our choices for He alone must be exalted, but we certainly can receive the rich reward of partaking in His Divine likeness and experiencing the resulting blessings.

"In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’”(Luke 17:10 NLT)
