Background passage: Isaiah 5:1-14

Biblical Insight

How can there be expectations for something that is a free gift?

The offer of salvation is a free gift. It is a gift of grace offered to anyone who will accept the gift of salvation. However, receiving a gift has some
assumptions. The assumption is that we will use the gift in the way it was intended. If you gave a painting as a gift and they never displayed the painting,
you would wonder why. You gave it with the expectation that they would display it. We confuse the nature of salvation with the nature of the Christian
life.
