Hello, John and Doves,
Someone once said...
The name "Age of Grace"
was given to this period because, during this
dispensation,
Gentiles as well as Jews
were now saved by the "unmerited favor (grace)" of
God
by believing in the
redemptive act at the cross and given the "unmerited
favor" of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
Let's take this apart [we
won't need any horses].
When, if ever or will ever,
anyone be saved by the Merited favor of God? Never.
Therefore, it's always been
about Grace.
As has been said many times,
"It's all about Love." Grace is hidden within
love. Faith is hidden in love. Hope is
hidden in love.
For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever
believes on Him shall not perish, but have
everlasting life. For God did not come into
the world to condemn the world, but to save the
world through him. John
3:16-17
Therefore, "All you need is
love."
And that's just the beginning
of His Story! Yahshua (Yah is
salvation) is encoded in Genesis 1:1, don't you
know!
The research is left to the
reader.
Baruch HaShem Yeshua Ha
Mashiach!
