Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
If ye must have justice, let it be the just us of the us-ward the Lord longsuffering unto so none perish. And in us-ward there is no "them" at all, eh.
What of "them" mirrorly "created" in "our image" (the reverse, opposite) for the sake of the God shew, them being Mr & Mrs 1st Adam: Gen 5 (in Adam all die)? After the sixth day, and prior to the seventh day (which is no place at all), the host of "them" (prepared for war) and their plural heavens get "finished" = utterly dissolved without a trace.
Genesis 2:1 (Selah, to get your head around it).
It's a them/us (created/made)imperfect/perfect "allegory" about them vs us (law vs grace); God (His grace) being one, of us, with us, for us, hath given "us" the victory, hath not appointed "us" unto wrath, etc. So the exhortation is to get "converted" from them to us, for bad things happen to "them" (1Th 5:3), but not to us (1Th 5:9).
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
Grace unto you,and peace,from God our Father,and from the Lord Jesus christ
It is amazing how when our hearts are established with grace only all our old anger,fear,resentments,and side wars, (two bad divorces for me), just vanish away as though they never were. Grace is Powerful!
Grace, and Mercy, and Peace unto you,
from God, our Father, and our Lord JC.
Indeed, when the heart is established "with grace", and not just "under grace", then old things "vanish away", and it becomes as if they never were. Grace is powerful.
Thank you for sharing that aspect of grace, how it purges; Yet not just as if a clean slate, but more like tossing the slate.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.
