Bishop Holcomb taught a message on 4 Aug 2009 entitled “Earning vs. Learning.”
I want to encourage your hearts to continue to be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. Remember that grace is God’s favor in place when we need it. It is unmerited. It is gratis and it is undeserved. When we go to church, we should go to learn of the grace of God. We do not go to attempt to earn some sort of points based on what we do. Ephesians 2:8, 9 says, “For by grace are we saved through faith. And that not of ourselves. It is the gift of God. Not of works lest any man should boast.” Remember that we cannot earn our way to Heaven. We must learn the way to Heaven. When we leave the church, we should exit in obedience to God’s Word. In turn, we will move into God’s peace, God’s prosperity and into His victory for our lives.
The conclusion of the matter is to fear God and to serve God in truth.
And as always, please remember to remain in the place of grace. Remain in the place by Jesus.
