Ethics as a result of Faith

The flow of biblical teaching today has moved more and more from teaching about salvation to teaching about morality.

The flow of life has of course gone from more moral to less and less moral.

Why? Why is the teaching of morality not preventing the collapse of right living?

The reality is that ethics is not something that can be taught it is something which flows from the power of God living in man.

If you want to make a man good you cannot do so by telling him what it means to be good. He will only become good when he meets the living God.

The reality is the more morality is proclaimed by the church the less grace is. And morality is always dependent on grace.
