In the beginning was the plan, and the plan was with God, and the plan was God. The same plan who is God was with God in the beginning. All things were made by this plan who is God; nothing was made without God's plan. Living in the plan is life, and that life is understanding God and the plan who is God. The understanding of ...

Faith with out the law (grace for the gentiles)
Mathew 8:5-12 the century in faith.
Mathew 15:21-28 the Canaanite women´s faith.
With each of these encounters with Gentiles, Jesus begins to see that the Gentiles who are without the law, have been given great faith. At this time he is not commissioned by God to go to the Gentiles. But will we see in these interactions with the Gentiles that faith springs forth easily from those whom are not under the law.

Faith-obedience: Precept, concept, philosophy, belief, behavior, product
God is our salvation through grace. God gives us justification. The justification of God produces our faith. Our faith produces
our belief. Our belief produces our peace. It is the peace of God that gives us conciliation. Our conciliation brings us to reconciliation. Reconciliation causes our confession. Our confession
is unto salvation and grace.

Happy are the pardoned, Happy are the justified
(Romans 4:7-8)
Happy are those whom lawlessness were pardoned and whose sins were covered over.
Happy the man whom the Lord by no means should be reckoning sin.
In the above passage of Scripture it speaks of two things that God is doing. He is pardoning the sins of some, and to some he is not even reckoning sin. Some have pardon, while others have justification.
To those whom are under the law (Israel) he is pardoning.
To those whom are under justification (the nations) he is not even reckoning sin.
The strength of sin is the law, but the nations do not have the law. God did not give the law to the nations he gave it to Israel. Under the law sins could be pardoned (by God). Sin was not known until the law came. The law never came to the nations, only Israel.
To those whom do not have law (the nations), he ministers to them gratuitously, justification. God does this to provoke to jealousy Israel his chosen people. To Israel Jesus Christ is to be a sin offering (one that they did not receive because they did not believe in him) but to the Gentile Jesus is to be and offering for justification. Under the law of sin offering did not justify the sinner, it only pardoned him. Under grace the offering of Jesus Christ gratuitously justifies those not under the law.
To any that have been given the faith of Jesus Christ, whether Jew or the nations, at this present time they are declared (reckoned) justified by God. Only those whom have been given Christ´s faith can be justified. The good news is that all will be given this faith but each in their own time as God gives it to them.

The Law makes NO PERSON perfect, the Lawgiver Does
No man can be perfected by the 10 Commandments.
No man of himself can keep the law perfectly. Only Jesus Christ can meet to full righteous requirement of the law on our behalf. Jesus did not meet this requirement on his own. It was God in him doing the work. If we take Jesus´ example we will find that only God can do the work of the law. It is in our darkened mind that we believe that we can keep and do ... << MORE >>

Jesus Calls the IRS (tax collectors) with grace, not with Judgement
Zacchaeus was a tax collector. He was despised because he was a deceitful man, cheating people of their money and resorting to
false accusations to get what he wanted.
One day, Jesus visited him. The Bible makes no mention of Jesus rebuking him for his dishonest lifestyle the whole time they were together. Instead, Jesus showed him grace and honor by spending time with him. Before long, Zacchaeus stood up and declared to Jesus that he ... << MORE >>

God Word is The Foundation of America
God´s Word provided the basis for what are termed inalienable rights (rights bestowed by God on every individual, regardless of
race, gender, or social situation). Among man´s inalienable rights were those of life, liberty, property, religious freedom, self protection, due process, sanctity of home, as well as others
listed throughout the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.

What is controlling you?
"Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled either by a power within them or by a power without them, either by The Word of
God or by the strong arm of man, either by the Bible or by the bayonet."
