What does growth in grace mean for a believer?

Answered in 1 source

Growth in grace involves becoming more aware of one's sinfulness and deepening love for Christ.

Growth in grace is a transformative process for believers, characterized by a deeper understanding of their sinfulness and an increased appreciation for Christ's righteousness. It’s essential to recognize that true growth leads believers to humility and dependence on God's grace rather than self-righteousness. As emphasized in 2 Peter 3:18, growing in grace means acquiring more knowledge of our Lord, which in turn cultivates a greater love for Him and His attributes. This growth is also outward, impacting love for others and a desire to share the gospel, reflecting the believer's transformation in Christ.
