I believe grace also empowers us to be slaves to righteousness.
Quote:
Romans 6:17-18
"But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness."

Would Govett view a self professed Christian such as Ravi Zacharias as saved? Ravi practiced sin and sexually abused women and guilt tripped them to stay silent using his religious status.
Would he also view an apostate like Bart Ehrmann as saved? Erhmann studied theology at Wheaton College as a believing evangelical but later turned away from the faith and made it his life's mission to deconstruct the faith of millions of believers as a bible scholar who denies the resurrection of Jesus.
Would Govett agree with the Apostle John when he wrote:
Quote:
1 John 3:10
This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not God’s child, nor is anyone who does not love their brother and sister.
