In whom we have redemption through His Blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. Ephesians, Chapter 1, verse 7.
Sometimes I get a little arrogant and self-righteous and think about the good things that I think I’m doing for others. Passages like this are very humbling. They remind me of how Jesus gave His life for us. As a Smug Christian, that’s why I have my Salvation, not from any things I do to earn it. The things that we do for others need to be for God, out of love. They shouldn't be to draw attention to ourselves or for us to become smug, thinking we are good Christians because we do these things.
Since this is an example of the positive influence God has made on my walk with Christ, this may not reflect the whole meaning of the Bible verses.
