Grace for you today !
Christ My Transforming Glory!
“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”
John 1:14, 17 NKJV
Jesus Christ is the fullness of the Glory of God . He is the completeness of God. The law was communicated to Israel through Moses. The law was assigned only to Israel / Jews and never meant to be given to non- Israelites or otherwise referred to as Gentiles.
This is because, of all the nations, Israel was chosen of God , whose genesis began from father Abraham , with whom God made a covenant to bless his descendants after him and through them the whole world.
Israel was a pure breed ( pedigree) and the chosen covenant people & yet they couldn’t keep the law. If the best of the breeds couldn’t keep, how then could the rest of the breeds ( gentiles) keep the law?
Therefore, God sent His only Son Jesus to fulfil all that the Law required to satisfy His justice and righteousness. Through Christ’s perfect obedience, abundance of grace and gift of Righteousness is given to bless mankind not only the Jews but also the whole world. Hallelujah!
His coming into this world brought the Permanent Glory of God to be resident IN us so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled IN us and NOT BY us ( Romans 8:4) . Hallelujah! What a relief !! The onus ( responsibility) to fulfill God’s standard doesn’t lie on us. Jesus in me is the hope of Glory, working in me what is required by God.
All I have to do today is to accept His divine working in me and confess that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus .
Amen 🙏
Praise Jesus!
