Jesus didn’t use the word grace, He was grace. Grace and truth came from Him. He was the dispenser of grace. The very personification of grace. John 1: 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of...

Sounds to me like you’re nit picking a bit, because everyone knows our Savior’s name is Jesus Or Yeshua. He has many other names including the Word, and He is, in fact, God, who became flesh and dwelt among us, as John makes clear here. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was...

Yes. All believers should stand with Israel. They are a noble and God fearing people in comparison to the heathen nations. They haven’t cast aside their heritage, they did reject their Messiah when He came, and will pay a heavy price, but in the end, the remnant will look upon the Lord the...

A matter of timing. A matter of ongoing revelation with an indwelling Spirit, which, after my noting ‘Christ in you’ was a mystery revealed to Paul, we see Jesus speaking of it before He was crucified. One of those hid with Christ in God nuggets of information noted before Paul revealed...

That’s one view. Here’s another one, but it requires the focus be on the Lord Jesus Christ, instead of Paul. Jesus stated, in John 3:16 “whosoever believeth”. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting...

I guess mine would be to consider more before doing. 😇 In fact, I hope to be living the Kingdom life, just as Jesus and Paul spoke of.

What was different? The indwelling Spirit. Christ in you, the hope of glory. And, of course, opening the door to the gentiles, although that was prophesied.

Jesus preached it first. John 3:15-18 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world...

Scripture is clear that salvation is OF the Jews, meaning all the promises, and Christ Himself was a Jew, and Christ Himself is salvation. Nothing false there. Romans 9:4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the...

Excellent. Yes, there is always something between man and God in the Catholic Church. I hadn’t thought of it that way, and all those things are fake. I can remember when I had to put a Kleenex on my head because I hadn’t brought my little head covering. I made up sins to tell the priest in...

True that most denominations do wrong things, and it’s getting worse all the time. Just as the Bible tells us it will. However, most other denominations broke away at some point in time, so I have to give them credit for that. The Catholic church claims to be the mother church, even though...

And you’re correct. Men were never saved by their works. The closest we see are these three and it was their obedient faith that saved them. Ezekiel 14:14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord...

Good job following that circle. 👍 I’m thinking a lot of people are incapable of understanding SYMBOLISM. We serve a mighty God, Who‘s ways are past finding out. So in His wisdom, He gives us word pictures we lowly humans might be able to understand. His provisions are bread (manna from...

Yes, but God has certainly given the Jews every chance, and many believe in spite of the blindness. That’s the “blindness in part” that Paul speaks of in Romans. Watching what is going on in Israel today, I was shocked to learn that most Jews today never even looked in the New Testament. They...

Yes. It was never by works, and that’s the whole point. The other apostles were wrong to demand circumcision, and Paul put a stop to that requirement. I think the confusion came when the kingdom program was put on hold, but the Lord had a man in mind, a Jew of the highest order. It took God...

The prophets didn’t belong to the Jews, but God used them to speak to all of mankind. Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. Sorry, I can’t agree with your “facts” concerning Luther and his role. For...

It’s interesting how one lone Jew was given the task of bringing to light the gospel message of salvation. It was right there hiding in plain sight, waiting to be revealed. All the way back to Noah, and all the way back to Abraham the message of salvation by grace was displayed, but it took...

What? This point? “God made a covenant with Abraham and Israel, that they would be His people, and He would be their God. That gave them special status among the nations. In the Body of Christ, there is no longer any difference between Jew or Greek. THERE IS NO SPECIAL STATUS. There is no...

Such patience and brotherly love. 😂. Paul would not like that. If these gentiles Peter is speaking of are believers as you seem to be claiming, what kind of unholy believers were they to speak evil of well doing? These gentiles ARE unbelievers because they will see in the day of visitation...

Your premise is faulty thus your explanation falls flat. Yes, the Jews have always been God’s chosen people. Not because they are special, but because they were first. Those who accept Jesus Christ as their Messiah are saved exactly as we are, and that includes Peter. They have entered...
