Can you avoid the grace of God in Paul's epistles?
No, you cannot avoid the grace of God in Paul's epistles. Everywhere you go in them, the grace of God appears, and it brings salvation, and it has appeared to all men. It cannot be run away from. This theme runs throughout Paul's letters.
Les explains that Titus 2:11 again declares, "For the grace of God." He emphasizes that you cannot run away from it: everywhere you go in Paul's epistles, there comes the grace of God, and it brings us salvation, and it has appeared to all men. Les also recalls Dr. Nordland, who taught Titus 2:11-15 for a whole week during a cold Iowa winter, and much of what Les teaches he remembers from that week. The world may urge people to live it up and enjoy the flesh, but that is not the way it is; believers have hope and are not miserable.
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
