    The Jews were very troubled with grace, because they needed laws to follow; particularly as the message of the New Testament suggested that they were above the law. They were very confused just like many Christians today. So let us put Grace into context.

    Jesus up the ante when he tells his disciples that the Law i to be tesy-ted in their own conscience rather than just that which can be proved in a Court of Law

    Jesus and the OT I am amazed how little time Christians devote to study the Old Testament – yet for Jesus it was “THE SCRIPTURE” He said not a jot or tittle of the Law would pass away – so we would do well to study it closely. Many Christians think that as Jesus came to ...read more
