Growing in grace means increasingly recognizing Christ’s value and transforming into His likeness as we mature in faith.
Growing in grace is a vital aspect of the Christian life and refers to the process of growing in the knowledge and virtue that comes from Christ. As highlighted in the sermon, if one finds Christ to be more precious now than before, then they are indeed growing in grace. This growth not only manifests through increased understanding of Christ’s work but also in a deeper reliance on His grace for daily living. As believers encounter God's grace, they are empowered to live out their faith authentically, reflecting Christ's character and fulfilling the command to be conformed to His image.
