Dependence.

"To teach grace is to teach a full and complete dependence upon God to provide according to His infinite love all that is needed by the one who places his trust in Him. The life of such a one must be a God-directed life. And a God-directed life is not one of carelessness and license. There is no indifference to sin in such a life. Only under grace can such a life be lived. But the one who imposes the law upon a believer, whether himself or another, by that very act denies the need of dependence upon God and thereby commits sin."

J. F. Strombeck
