Blood Bought Zeal

Titus 2:14 gives us 2 reasons Christ gave Himself for us:

1. to redeem us from all lawlessness
2. to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.

When we think about the death of Christ, we normally think about #1: the forgiveness of our sins. However, what effect would it have on us if we really believed that Christ gave Himself for my purification, my identification with His people, and my zeal for good works?

Christ died that I might be radical in doing good works. What am I zealous for? Is my life characterized by zeal for good works?
