How do we know that grace leads to changed lives?

Answered in 1 source

Grace leads to a transformed life as believers become 'dead to sin' and alive to God through Christ, as explained in Romans 6.

The transformative power of grace is evident in Romans 6, where Paul argues that those who have received God's grace ought not to continue in sin. He poses the rhetorical question, 'Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?' and responds emphatically with 'God forbid!' A true understanding of grace compels believers to recognize their new identity in Christ; they are 'dead to sin' and now desire to live according to God's will. This is further elucidated in verses 8 and 14, where believers are reminded that they partake in Christ's death and resurrection, which frees them from sin's dominion. Therefore, true grace manifests itself through a life characterized by obedience and righteousness.
