Here is Titus 3:3-8 shaping in us an attitude towards the gospel which Christians REALLY need...
"For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Saviour appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, who he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Saviour, so that being justified by his grace we might becomes heirs according to the hope of eternal life. the saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works."
Insist on the gospel of God's grace, the gospel of him saving us, the gospel of his goodness and loving kindness, of his mercy, the gospel of washing by the Holy Spirit, the gospel of Jesus Christ, the gospel of sinners becoming heirs of eternal life ... insist on it for the sake of the life of the believer!
