GRACE IS NO ENTITLEMENT!

GRACE IS NO ENTITLEMENT!

In our society with our entitlement mentality, it is humanly impossible to penetrate the mind of carnal man with the message of sovereign grace. In our culture the aged feel entitled to certain benefits from the government, the middle-aged feel they are entitled to certain benefits from their employer—better health and retirement benefits, etc…young people feel they are entitled to those things that parents labored and struggled twenty and thirty years for.
To tell a people whose minds are programmed to such that the God of Holy Scriptures is under obligation to no one, and that He cannot and will not be obligated to any son of Adam is a task too great for the most gifted gospel preacher. But they must be told; anything less would be a dishonest message. Grace must stand as grace else it is not grace at all. Paul is very emphatic about the matter in the Roman Epistle, “And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work (Romans 11:6).
In Matthew twenty, our Lord gives a parable which is designed in its entirety to teach the lesson of sovereign grace. It shows us that God has the right to bless with grace whom He pleases, when He pleases, and how He pleases. Let me share it with you. The story is about a householder who went out and hired workers to work in his field. He hired them at certain times of the day beginning at the first hour unto the eleventh. He agreed to pay the first ones a penny for their labor, and they agreed with the wage. At days end they all gathered for their pay and when He gave them all their penny those that had worked through the heat of the day complained that those whom He hired at the eleventh hour were paid as much as they. The householder then explained to them what grace is—But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny? Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee. IS IT NOT LAWFUL FOR ME to do what I WILL WITH MINE OWN? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?” (Vs.13-15).
Those that were hired in the first part of the day did not understand the graciousness and generosity of the householder. He did not have to hire them at all, and what He agreed to give was His to give and theirs to receive.
