March 16-Start Your Day Right DevotionGRACE AND TRUTH Before Jesus came to earth to die for humanity’s sins (offenses and rebellion against God), God’s people in the Old Testament had to maintain their relationship with Him based on the Old Testament law that God gave through the prophet Moses. But even before the law was given, living for God and being “right” with Him was not simply a matter to following commands and regulations. True faith in Him was still the most basic requirement. That was evident in the lives of individuals such as Enoch, Noah and Abraham (Genesis 5:24; 7:1; 15:6). Their faith and God’s promises of forgiveness (Exodus 34:6-7; Leviticus 5:17-18) were evidence of God’s grace – His undeserved favor and love – even in Old Testament times. But now, through Christ, God’s grace and truth are available to the fullest measure (Romans 5:17-21). Truth is no longer veiled or hidden behind prophetic signs and symbolic activities (such as the sacrifices). Christ, the Word (John 1:1; John 1:14), has now fully revealed God’s promises, principles and purposes. “One blessing after another” (John 1:16) means that God constantly provides the benefits of His presence and power to those who have responded to His grace and accepted Christ’s forgiveness and leadership in their lives. Spiritual salvation does not come by our own imperfect efforts to keep the law, but by the Holy Spirit – the Spirit of truth (John 14:17; 16:2). The Holy Spirit reveals God’s truth and comes into the lives of those who receive Christ, renewing their spirit and re-creating them in Christ’s image. This means that they can respond to Him, have a personal relationship with Him and start to reflect His love, as well as His other characteristics. BIBLE STUDY TOOLS I USE
