Cheap Grace, Little Comfort:
few want grace that transforms.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer warned of a faith that loves forgiveness, yet refuses repentance.
A Christianity that wants heaven, yet resists surrender.
Blessing, yet no obedience.
Mercy, yet no cross.
That kind of grace costs nothing—
because it changes nothing.
Real grace does not excuse sin.
It breaks chains.
Real grace does not leave a person where it found them.
It teaches hearts to deny self, take up the cross, and follow Christ.
The cross was never cheap.
Why should following Jesus be?
Many ask for pardon.
Few ask to be made holy.
Grace is free to receive—
yet it cost Jesus everything.
