Law, Grace and Truth


For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
John 1:17 KJV

Moses and Jesus Christ were both mediators between men and God but there was a difference. Moses brought the law from God but Jesus brought grace and truth. Jesus did not abolish the law but came to fulfill it with grace and truth. Man cannot fulfill the demands of the law no matter how hard we try. We will always fall short in one way or another and that is why we need a deep relationship with Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Walking with Jesus is walking in the light and we shall not stumble and because we are in the light, we will have spiritual revelation of what is going on around us here in the physical. We all have this privilege to understand spiritual revelations but some choose to ignore this.

Grace and truth does not protect us from the consequences of our actions but help us to understand the very nature of God and how he reconciles us with himself despite our sinful nature and shortcomings. We do not going on sinning so that grace may abound instead we come to Jesus to help us overcome the deeds of the flesh and walk in the spirit. The truth may hurt but it will also heal. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and Life.
