“Duties are ours and events are God’s.”

Grace is the love of God shown to the unlovely. It is God reaching downward to people who are in rebellion against him.

I expounded this often-misapplied command from 2 Corinthians 13:5 in its proper context a couple years ago:
“Christian, You Don’t Always Have to Examine Yourself.”

It is only from the Scriptures, applied to our hearts by the Holy Spirit, that we receive the grace to trust God in adversity.

If you don't know what the Marrow Controversy was, you should because it has not gone away.
Here's a hint: The Marrow Men were the good guys.

Paul was not telling the Corinthians to examine their WORKS to see if they were in the faith.
He was telling them to examine what they BELIEVED.
They were in danger of believing a false gospel.
**Reading 2 Cor. 13:5 in light of 2 Cor. 11:4 is helpful**

“Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith” (2 Cor 13:5) is not commanding Christians to be on a constant introspective journey as to whether they’re Christians.
Paul wrote that to a wayward church that was entertaining a false gospel (11:4).

"Dispensationalism is a theological system born of a response to theological liberalism and a corresponding suspicion of historic Christian confessions. It is a 'start from scratch' movement that claims a consistent literal interpretation of the Bible must lead to an Israel-centric perspective on the world, history, and the future. Dispensationalism insists that there must be a future for national, geopolitical, and religious Israel. This includes the insistence that God wants Israel to have a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, with a reinstituted priesthood, animal sacrifices, and all that would go with it. Non-dispensational Christians wince at the idea of a future earthly temple. After all, revelation is progressive, and the culminating high point is Jesus, the ultimate temple. Theological mischief is the only thing that could result from going backward (Heb 1:1-2)"

The grace of God is a contrast between the desperate plight of mankind and the abundant gracious remedy God has provided for us through Christ.
