God saves us to make us a people of His own possession
He saves us to draw us near to Him and for us to know Him!
He gave Himself for us to redeem us from ALL lawlessness
- Only one law matters. If we live apart from it, we are law less
He gives us hope that is realized when we are with Him

God’s grace trains us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions
As we renounce these things, we embrace living self-controlled, upright, and godly lives
We are to be a people of His own possession who are zealous (passionate and excited, well-motivated) for good (defined by God) works.
We are to live and please Him (as oppose to defying and rejecting Him)
The will of God for your life: Sanctification
- No longer led by worldly passions and impulses but rather controlled in holiness and honor.
- No longer self-focused but looking out for one another.
- Not impurity, but holiness

We could go longer and get into more specific details about God’s purpose for our lives, but all of our Abundant Purposes stem from these two things:
1) Know God
2) Be Set Apart Unto Him
Faith and Faithfulness
