It would not have been a problem—so I thought— if I was to be booked for an appointment to get saved at a later date. I always had no problem getting saved ‘in the future.’ But when I was convicted to get saved "NOW," it was too immediate for me. Humanly speaking, there are times when justification for procrastination is overwhelmingly ‘sensible.’ Familiarity with the enslavement of sin makes the liberty of salvation a stranger. But once I got saved in a miraculous way, I asked God to help me 'get it right.'

The convictions that gave birth to the writing of this book were as result of the struggles I went through after getting saved. The same grace that was abundantly poured for me became the most confusing considering the conflicting teachings I would hear about the grace of God.

My desire was to serve God but the cravings of the flesh made some of the teachings on the grace extremely attractive. But instead of giving vent to the cravings of the flesh, I got confused about the right understanding of the purpose and the workings of God's grace.

Five years after getting saved, I was visiting a friend who lived on a high block when I heard an inner voice ask me: "Can you cross over from this building to the next, balancing on a rope?" And that is how I got my answer on what the grace is and what it is not.

With practical illustrations, this book bridges the gap between theology and practice.
