Laws and faith

What is the greatest of God's Commandments? Jesus identifies this One Great Command in Moses' Law and links a 2nd Command to it permanently. Love God with everything and Love your neighbor as yourself. Sometimes we, to our detriment, twist the 2nd command into a self-centered diatribe about learning to love ourselves rather than focusing on the point of the command, and of love in general, that we are to live sacrificially thinking of others as greater than ourselves. Indeed, the great Christian life is the life of a servant-hearted lover of others. Jesus teaches the scribes that the Hebrew Messiah, the Christ, was to be greater than King David, not simply one of his descendants. Jesus warns the people to beware of the scribes whose preference was their own honor. Finally, we are reminded that God doesn't need money. He already owns everything. How we share is far more important than how much we share. Shared by Jason Stuart Percy at Refuge Tallahassee on Sunday, March 14, 2021.

God's Laws and the Order that He creates are to guide us in learning HOW to love God and to love our neighbors.

The Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever. This is New Testament truth. But it is eternal truth. The Lord who called, redeemed and set Israel apart is the the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. As such, we can learn much from Israel, the Lord's son by covenant. He saved them by his grace and told them how to live--by way of the Torah. As Christians in the 21st Century, God still tells us, his covenant people how to live. Come with the Grace United crew as we see the blessing and curse God has in store for his people, depending on how they respond to his divine ways, his "ancient paths."

Are real giants talked about in the Bible? If so, who are they? Or is this to be considered a no kidding mythical tale? What does this sort of thing have to do with God, with God's people, even with Christians in teh 21st century? Join the Grace United crew as we dive in to the "Gospel According to Moses" exploring a "giant" issue.

As Grace United, we have a tradition: when we finish a book of the Bible, we review the entire book in one message. Today's message reflects our tradition, for today we finish Deuteronomy. Come with the Grace United crew as we step back and attempt to take in the entire "Gospel According to Moses."

The Big "C" is a dreaded word in our world. "C" is painful. Surgery is almost always needed to cut the cancer out. But there is a big "C" in the Scripture as well. Circumcision. Circumcision is commanded for . . . all God's people. "But" we might say, "how can circumcision be commanded for all of God's people? Isn't it supposed to be for males only? Well, not exactly, although males in Israel are commanded to get the Big "C". What is God after? What exactly is circumcision for anyway? Come with the Grace United crew as we explore this all important issue of circumcision and what it means for ALL of God's people, Old Covenant or New Covenant saints.
