Insights

Embracing Jesus and receiving righteousness

πŸ™Œ The power of Jesus transcends individual churches and denominations, uniting believers under one name.

🌍 Messianic congregations in Israel are seen as the firstfruits and the beginnings of the 144,000 Jewish evangelists mentioned in the book of Revelation.

πŸ‘€ It is important to see Jesus in every aspect of Israel, converting rituals and customs into opportunities to experience blessing, grace, mercy, and peace.

πŸ™Œ Grace is not just a topic, it is the gospel and must be incorporated into every aspect of our lives.

πŸ™Œ The examples of Abraham and Joseph show that holiness existed before the giving of the Ten Commandments, highlighting the significance of a personal relationship with God.

πŸ™Œ The New Covenant ministry is about resting in God’s grace, where there is no sweat or striving, and it is through grace that redemption is found.

πŸ‘ Our sins are transferred to the innocent lamb, Jesus, and we receive the righteousness and blessings that he deserves.

πŸ™ Embrace Jesus Christ as the way, the truth, and the reality, and receive the gift of righteousness that allows God to hear your prayers and treat you as a righteous person.

Controversial nature of the gospel of grace

πŸ’‘ The gospel of grace preached by Paul faced opposition from Jews at the time, highlighting the controversial nature of his message.

🌍 The gospel of grace has come full circle, starting from Jerusalem and now returning to Israel, indicating that they are once again ready to hear it.

πŸ“– “If preaching the gospel is not necessary for the Jews, then Paul suffered needlessly, so it is important to preach the gospel to Israel for their salvation.”

5.1 Grace is higher than the law, and when John the Baptist’s father didn’t believe the angel’s word, his mouth was shut, but when John was born, his name represented the grace of God, and when baby Jesus was brought to the temple, Simeon, representing the entirety of the law, blessed the parents and proclaimed that his eyes had seen salvation, and right after that, a lady named Hannah came in and proclaimed redemption through grace.

5.2 Sin, sickness, and poverty have no power over you when you are under grace, and rest is not inactivity but directed activity.

6.4 Seeking the righteousness of God will result in all blessings being added to you, and it is important to work out your salvation with fear and trembling in various aspects of life.

7.3 The glory of Jesus’ face, which represents the gospel of grace, surpasses the glory of Moses’ face, which represents the law, and the preaching of the gospel of grace in the end times will have an even greater glory.

7.4 Jesus forgives a woman caught in adultery and challenges those without sin to cast the first stone, showing that he upholds the law but offers love and forgiveness instead of condemnation.

7.5 In the last days, shepherds will preach a message of grace that will empower people to not fear, be discouraged, or lack, and this will happen when the Jewish people return from the north country, restoring the message of grace to the church.

7.6 Jesus took on our sins and gave us his righteousness, just like in ancient Israel where the lamb took on the sins of the offeror and the offeror received the blessings of God.

  1. πŸ™ Worship and keep the glory of God in mind, as there is no rival in His presence; God loves you and is not holding your sins against you, so embrace Jesus Christ, receive his gift of righteousness, and become a child of God with all things made new, as he is coming back soon.
