Summary
TLDR: The key idea of the video is that the gospel of grace, represented by Jesus and his increasing glory, is necessary for salvation and brings freedom, forgiveness, and eternal life.
- 📖 Moses’ fading glory represents failure and condemnation, while Jesus’ increasing glory represents the putting away of sins and the expectation of good things; Israel needs the gospel of grace and preaching it is necessary for their salvation.
1.1 Moses’ glory was fading and represented failure and condemnation, but Jesus’ glory is ever increasing and represents the putting away of sins and the expectation of good things.
1.2 Jesus healed a blind man with mud on his eyes to illustrate that he is the creator and that creation fell because of Adam’s sin, and now Israel is about to see and their blindness is about to end.
1.3 Israel needs the gospel of grace and it is important to see Jesus in every aspect of Israel, as preaching the gospel is necessary for the salvation of the Jews.
1.4 Share the gospel with others, including charitable organizations, by directing them to TBN where the gospel is being preached and restored.
1.5 We are not preaching the same gospel that Paul preached, as people misunderstand and accuse him of promoting sin, while we preach a gospel of do good get good and do bad get bad, which is not the true gospel.
1.6 The Holy Spirit is necessary to understand the gospel and receive good, as opposed to the belief that doing good leads to receiving good, as stated in John 1:17.
- 📚 Grace and Truth, represented as one, came through Jesus and are the powerful forces that bring freedom and eternal life.
2.1 In the Hebrew New Testament, the word for “Grace” is pronounced with a cultural sound, which is interesting because different translations of the Old Testament use various words to convey the same meaning.
2.2 Grace and Truth are not separate entities, but rather they are one, and the message of Grace is actually the gospel itself.
2.3 Grace and Truth, represented as one singular entity, came through Jesus, and they are the powerful forces that bring freedom and eternal life.
- 🙏 The first miracle of Grace brings life and celebration, while the law leads to death; build your life on God’s unshakable grace, not the law.
3.1 The first miracle of the law resulted in death, while the first miracle of Grace resulted in life and celebration, showing that the law kills but the spirit gives life.
3.2 Falling short of God’s grace leads to bitterness, fornication, and a failure to walk in holiness and peace with others.
3.3 Build your life, ministry, and family on the unshakable foundation of God’s grace at Mount Zion, not on the law at Mount Sinai.
3.4 God is restoring the gospel of Grace, which encompasses every aspect of our lives, including parenting, finances, and relationships.
3.5 Without the law, we can still correct our children and be holy like Abraham by teaching them their identity in Christ, just as the speaker did with his daughter.
3.6 Joseph resisted temptation by running away, and the key to avoiding temptation is to rely on God’s grace rather than trying to keep the law.
- 🙏 Sin, sickness, and poverty have no power over us because of God’s grace, and by resting in Him, we are redeemed from the curse of stress and work.
4.1 Johannan, meaning the grace of God, wrote his name as Yo Kanan, and when baby Jesus was brought to the temple, Simeon, representing the entirety of the law, blessed the parents and said he could depart in peace after seeing Yeshua, and right after that, Hannah, representing grace, proclaimed redemption to everyone.
4.2 Sin, sickness, and poverty have no power over those who are under grace because grace is the supply that meets all demands, and when we rest in God, He works through us.
4.3 Rest is not inactivity, but rather directed activity, and Jesus redeemed us from the first area in the Garden of Eden.
4.4 Jesus redeemed us from the curse of stress and work by sweating blood in the Garden of Gethsemane, and as believers, we are called to live a sweatless life under God’s grace.
- 💡 The law demands righteousness, but Jesus came to redeem us through grace, as seen in the stories of the Rich Young Ruler and Zacchaeus.
5.1 The law demands righteousness from sinfully bankrupt men, but no one can fulfill it, so God sent Jesus to redeem us through grace.
5.2 The pulpit is not for exposing people’s sinfulness, but for preaching the gospel of the righteousness of God and unveiling the loveliness of Jesus, so that those who believe can be saved and transformed by beholding His glory.
5.3 Jesus raised the standard of the law to show that even thoughts of adultery are sinful, bringing people to the end of themselves and leading them to cry out for a savior.

5.5 Jesus showed that no amount of money or good works can save us, but it is only through His grace that we are redeemed, as seen in the story of the Rich Young Ruler and Zacchaeus.
5.6 When Jesus gave the law to the Rich Young Ruler, he could hardly give up one shackle, but when Jesus gave no law but Grace to Zacchaeus, his wallet, house, and heart opened up, showing that once Grace takes over, you cannot stop people from giving.
- 📖 Peter mistakenly tried to put the law, prophets, and grace on the same level, resulting in the disappearance of Moses and Elijah, but Jesus’s ever-increasing glory brings grace and the ministry of righteousness through the gospel of grace will have a greater glory than past revivals.
6.1 Jesus took Peter, James, and John up the mountain, where Peter mistakenly tried to put the law, prophets, and grace on the same level, resulting in the disappearance of Moses and Elijah.

6.3 Grace says your sins are put away, and the ministry of righteousness through the preaching of the gospel of grace will have a glory that exceeds the revivals of the past.
- 🙏 Jesus shows grace and forgiveness to a woman caught in adultery, emphasizing the importance of not condemning others, and teaches that through his righteousness, we can receive forgiveness and all its benefits.
7.1 Jesus encounters a woman caught in adultery, and instead of directly answering the Pharisees’ question, he writes on the ground to imply that only those without sin can cast the first stone, causing them to leave one by one.
7.2 Jesus showed grace and forgiveness to a woman accused of sinning, giving her the gift of no condemnation before instructing her to sin no more, which is the true order of the gospel.
7.3 God will raise up Shepherds in the last days who will feed the people, causing them to fear no more, be discouraged, or lack, and this will happen when the Jewish people come back from the North Country, signifying the restoration of the message of Grace to the church.
7.4 Jesus, who was sinless, took on our sin so that we, who do not do righteousness, can receive his righteousness and all the benefits that come with it.
- 🐑 God does not judge us based on our own goodness, but on the goodness of Jesus, who takes on our sins and gives us His righteousness.
