Exceeding Grace, Surpassing Righteousness

Torah of the Kingdom: Exceeding Grace, Surpassing Righteousness

God's grace represents loving kindness and covenant loyalty, not a reflection of human worthlessness. While we cannot earn God's love, we inherently deserve it as His created children. Jesus's teachings on adultery and divorce emphasize the importance of covenant faithfulness and protecting the vulnerable. True grace elevates people's worth while calling them to demonstrate selfless love and loyalty in their relationships. These teachings challenge us to extend genuine grace to others while maintaining high standards of faithfulness.

The descendants of Abraham once again found themselves drawn to a mountain to hear the word of the Lord. But this time, the incarnate Son of God was seated before them—audibly speaking, teaching, and sharing His Torah. Words that are commonplace in Christianity today fell like nuclear bombs, transforming the hearts and minds of the sons and daughters of Abraham gathered there. Those who knew the Torah of Moses were now faced with a new way to approach the Torah, the heart of God, and the Kingdom of Heaven—revealed by the Son of God Himself.
