Lailah Gifty AkitaIs there any good works without grace?
About This Quote
To think that we can do good works and not receive grace from God is to be completely mistaken. There is nothing we can do in this world that will bring glory to God without his approval. If you take a look at this entire world, it is made up of sinners who have no love for God. Yet if we’re doing something good, God must approve of it.
