How do we know that God's grace severs our works from unregenerate works?
Answered in 1 source
God's grace distinctly separates the works of His people from the works of the unregenerate by His sovereign choice.
God's sovereign grace is evident in His distinction between the cattle of Israel and Egypt in Exodus 9:4. He serves as the divine agent who severs believers from unregenerate works. This action underscores that all who are in Christ are not only elected by grace but also set apart to produce works that are pleasing to God. Romans 8:3 explains that Christ condemned sin in the flesh, fulfilling the law's demands, thus enabling believers to walk after the Spirit rather than the flesh. As believers grow in faith, their obedience is a reflection of Christ's work in them (Ephesians 2:10).
