“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.” – Rms 5:17
The only way to reign in life, is to receive ABUNDANCE of grace and Jesus’ righteousness. We must have more than just a little grace… more than just a religious amount of grace… we must receive an over-the-top amount of grace. And we must see ourselves as the righteousness of God in Christ – II Cor 5:21. This is God’s recipe for successful reigning in life! Anything less sets us up for failure.
Abundance of grace + Jesus’ righteousness = Successful reigning in life

Amen, bro. With HIS life, who can go wrong! We just need to believe it and stop trying to earn it.
I think we’re gaining on it. Our minds are getting renewed, which is leading to real transformation of our lives. Right believing leads to right living, you know! And it feels so good.
