Justice, Mercy and Faith


Romans 8:3; 4; 5; 6; The Eternal Logos, declares the faithfulness, of the Heavenly Father's love, toward those who love Him. And keep His commandments. The Eternal's righteous judgment, consists of mercy, for repentant sinners, Or just punishment, upon the wicked, and lawless. (Ex 20:5; 6; )

(Ps 51:1-2; 3-4; 6-7; 9-10; 12-13; 16-17; Lk 1:46-47; 48-49; 50-51; 52-53; 54-55; 67-68; 69-70; 71-72; 73-74; 75-76; 77-78; 79; )

Romans 3:9-10; 19-20;  Everyone has sinned, by violating the Eternal's commandments, both Jew and Gentile. 

(Heb 4:9-10; 11-12; 13-14; 15; 16; )

Romans 1:16-17; 18-19; 20; 21-22; 3:21-22; 23-24; 25; 26; From creation’s beginning. The governing authority, of the Heavenly Father, established law, that justly convicts sinners, of their transgressions. The Eternal's righteousness, demonstrates loving compassion. By showing mercy, “grace”, to everyone, that repents. By turning away from sin, and lawlessness. Messiah Yeshua, revealed true love, and His desire to restore mankind, to a right relationship, with the Heavenly Father. Sharing His Holy Spirit, with repentant believers. 

(Isa 55:7; 1-2; 3-4; 5-6; Jn 1:14-15; 16-17; 18; 29-30; 31-32; 33-34;Acts 2:38; 1 Tim 1:13-14; 15; 16-17; Titus 3:5-6; 7; Ro 9:24; 25-26; Hos 2:23;

Ro 10:17; 14; 15-16; Isa 53:1-2;3-4;   Only Messiah Yeshua, lived a perfect, sinless, life. And obediently, kept His Heavenly Father's commandments. Messiah Yeshua, is Righteous, when He Judges, human sinfulness. And Just, when He shows Mercy. 

(Ro 3:20 NASB; Ro 3:21-22; 23-24; 25-26; ) Humans cannot, boast, that they have not, transgressed, the Eternal's Righteous Laws. Logos Yehwah Elohe, the Messiah, wrote 10 foundational Commandments. And gave them to Moses, for the nation of Israel. Most of the Commandments, are “thou shall not–laws”. And do NOT represent, Works.  The 4th Commandment, “keep Holy the Sabbath”, is a promised, future rest, from Works. The Sabbath, was established on the 7th day. When the Heavenly Father, and logos the Son, rested from their Work, of renewing their creation. Messiah's future Kingdom, on earth, will reconcile mankind, to the Heavenly Father. And restore the Sabbath rest.

Saved by Grace?


Most of Christianity teaches, that Jesus became their sins. As he was dying, on the cross. Christianity claims, that the heavenly Father, abandoned His Son. Because He could not, look upon the bearer of our sin, and guilt. Christians believe, the Heavenly Father, inflicted the punishment, for our sins. By rejecting His Son, as a Substitution, ScapeGoat. Instead of punishing, sinful mankind. False Christian doctrine, propitiates the wrath of the Heavenly Father. Appeasing Him by the death, of His “sin filled” Son. When Jesus said, “it is finished”, he fulfilled the law, for everyone. So people do not, have to obey, that old law. Jesus paid, mankind's sin debt. Now everyone may receive, the free gift, of eternal life. And the heavenly father's unconditional love. Christian doctrine, states, that if anyone believes, this, “heretical teaching”, they are saved by grace, through faith.
