How does grace lead to obedience in faith?

Answered in 1 source

Grace empowers believers to live in obedience through faith, reflecting the transformation that occurs in their hearts.

In Reformed theology, the relationship between grace and obedience is foundational. Romans 1:5 links grace to the 'obedience of faith,' indicating that true faith results in a life changed by God's grace. This transformation is not about legalistic adherence to rules but a natural response to God’s love and mercy. A believer, having received grace, is compelled to live obediently, as faith and conduct are intricately connected, demonstrating the reality of God's work in their life.
