One day a teacher asked her class, “What’s the difference between ignorance
and apathy?” One defiant little boy replied, “I don’t know, and I don’t care!”

By contrast, the Apostle Paul talks about a difference that all Christ-
ians should know and care about, when he wrote that salvation is

“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but
according to His Mercy He saved us, by the washing of
regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost”
(Titus_3:5).​

That’s quite different than how things were in time past...

...These are differences that all Christians should know and care about, lest
their ignorance and apathy adversely affect The Very Gospel Of Salvation we
must accurately present to the lost, The Gospel Of Salvation By Grace Through
faith apart from works of righteousness...

Make sure that you are aware that salvation for most of us comes through our doing God's will sir.

Tts 3:5 KJV "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;"

In your post, you stopped your quote at the word 'righteousness" and left out the words "we have done". Those 3 words are necessary to show the contrast Paul is making in this verse. Why did you leave these important words out?

..
Indeed, for it is a very different covenant from the one they had in the past:
This is the covenant I will make with them
after that time, says the Lord.
I will put my laws in their hearts,
and I will write them on their minds
.”

17 Then he adds:

“Their sins and lawless acts
I will remember no more

Heb10:16&17
However as Jesus said:
And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, ‘The old is better.’” Luke5:39
