The Christian life is often compared to a race in the Bible. Winning this race is the most important thing in anyone's life. Ironically, this race is the total opposite of the races we know today - particularly marathons. In today's marathons, officials are concerned with individuals who finish the race but do not start it. In the Bible, the more pressing concern is for those who start the race but do not finish it. The New Testament is filled with exhortations to run the race well so that you actually complete the race set before you. We must maintain this biblical train of thought: the reward that we receive by faith in Christ for winning this race is based or grounded on grace alone. However, only those who exercise faith in Christ and endure in their faith to the end will receive this reward. We see this truth in the biblical presentation of the nature of the type of faith that saves.
