The “ABC’s of Grace” is a simple, thought provoking, life changing book for those who struggle with LEGALISM. The Law/Works attitude which cripples Christians and kills churches still unfortunately lives today. Charles Hodge Jr. says, “Jack Exum ‘introduced’ grace to me. Back then, if you wanted to ruin a preacher, just say that “he has gone off into grace.” He taught me about grace and it totally changed my attitude and my preaching.”
Here you will come to the realization that as a Christian, you don’t have to ‘measure up’ to a ‘check list system.’ You don’t have to repeat from the time you get up in the morning till the time you go to bed in the evening, “Forgive me Lord,” “Forgive me Lord”…
The “ABC’s of Grace” does not encourage the Christian to abuse grace, nor be afraid of it, but to accept it and find the confidence that comes because of God’s grace. Knowing you are God’s beloved child…now, you just need to GROW!
With this book the author ‘cracks the door open’ for a look at this marvelous concept and seeks to show the importance of BALANCE in teaching it, and living it. As he has said so often, “We don’t need more hell-fire and damnation preachers, nor do we need more grace preachers… we need preachers who know and teach how these work together. For without sin, there is no need for grace… Without grace we have no hope as sinners.”
