Shalom,
JESUS that we worship has His Hebrew's Name : [ישֵׁועַ] YESHUA.
Isaiah says : Isaiah 9
YESHUA is [אֵל גִבוֹר] EL GIBBOR : THE ALMIGHTY GOD.
YESHUA is [שַׂר שָׁלוֹם] SAR SHALOM : PRINCE OF PEACE.
YESHUA is [אבי-עד] AVI-AD : EVERLASTING FATHER.
Matthew says : Matthew 2
YESHUA is [מֶלֶךְ היְהודִים] MELECH HA'YEHUDIM : KING OF THE JEWS.
John says : John 1
YESHUA is [מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל] MELECH ISRAEL : KING OF ISRAEL.
YESHUA is [πληρησ χαριτοσ] PLERES CARITOS : FULL OF GRACE.
YESHUA is [αληθειασ] ALETHEIAS : TRUTH.
Note :
Let's read again John 1:14.
Joh 1:14
And the WORD was made flesh, and DWELT among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) FULL OF GRACE and TRUTH.
We do NOT reject His GRACE, YESHUA is FULL OF GRACE. That's AMEN! But let's see about His TRUTH.
What is TRUTH?
Psa 119:142
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy LAW is the TRUTH.
Joh 17:17
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy WORD is TRUTH.
1Jo 2:3-4
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS. He that saith, I know him, and KEEPETH NOT his COMMANDMENTS, is a LIAR, and the TRUTH is not in him.
So, what is the TRUTH?
Psalm 119:142 says, TRUTH is THE LAW / TORAH.
John 17:17 says, TRUTH is THE WORD OF GOD.
1 John 2:3-4 says, TRUTH is KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS / LAW / TORAH.
So, let's go back to John 1:14. John says, YESHUA is FULL OF GRACE and TRUTH. YESHUA is FULL OF GRACE and TORAH.
If we believe in YESHUA, that's good. That means you have FAITH in HIM. But this FAITH is NOT PERFECT yet. Why? Because the devils also believe / have FAITH that YESHUA is Son of God.
Jas 2:19
Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
What is the thing that make a difference between BELIEVERS IN YESHUA and devils?
BELIEVERS IN YESHUA :
1. They have FAITH.
2. They have WORKS (OBEDIENCE TO TORAH).
Devils :
1. They have FAITH.
2. They do NOT have WORKS (They are TRANSGRESSORS OF THE LAW / TORAH).
1Jo 3:4
Whosoever committeth SIN transgresseth also the LAW: for SIN is the transgression of the LAW.
So, how is mankind justified?
Jas 2:24
Ye see then how that by WORKS a man is justified, and not by FAITH only.
Mankind is justified by FAITH and WORKS (OBEDIENCE TO TORAH). Look at Abraham as example.
Abraham was justified by FAITH :
Gen 15:6
And he BELIEVED in the LORD; and he counted it to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Abraham was also justified by WORKS (OBEDIENCE TO TORAH) :
Gen 22:1-19.
Jas 2:21
Was not Abraham our father justified by WORKS, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
This is JESUS / YESHUA that we worship. HE is FULL OF GRACE and TRUTH / TORAH.
We are justified by our FAITH in HIM and our WORKS OF OBEDIENCE TO HIS TORAH.
FAITH without WORKS is DEAD.
Jas 2:20
But wilt thou know, O vain man, that FAITH without WORKS is dead?
I know that maybe some of you will quote Paul's writing in Romans 3:28.
Rom 3:28
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by FAITH without the DEEDS OF THE LAW.
We must be CAREFULL on examining Paul's writing, otherwise we'll be DEAD because misunderstand Paul's writing. This is not what I said, this is what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:16
2Pe 3:16
As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things HARD TO BE UNDERSTOOD, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
What did Paul mean by the DEEDS OF THE LAW? It comes from Greek word [εργων νομου] ERGON NOMOU. The word [εργων] ERGON means PRODUCT; DEED; LABOUR.
Paul used the word [εργων νομου] ERGON NOMOU and that means PRODUCTS OF THE LAW / TORAH; DEEDS OF THE LAW / TORAH.
What is PRODUCT OF THE LAW / TORAH?
I share you an example : Mar 7:3-5.
The TORAH says about FOOD in Leviticus 11. But the PRODUCT OF THE TORAH is WASHING HAND / NETILAT HA'DAYIM.
The TRUTH is :
Lev 11 is a KOSHER FOOD. Once we say FOOD, that means KOSHER. The KOSHER FOOD can NOT be NON KOSHER just because one doesn't do NETILAT HA'DAYIM.
NETILAT HA'DAYIM is PRODUCT OF THE LAW.
This is what Paul meant in Rom 3:28. We are justified by FAITH, NOT by the PRODUCT OF THE LAW. And James in James 2:24, he made it PERFECT, that man is justified by FAITH and by WORKS (ACT OF OBEDIENCE TO TORAH).
So, who are saying the TORAH now is DONE?
Rom 3:31
Do we then make void the LAW through FAITH? God FORBID: yea, we ESTABLISH the LAW.
Church...this is the GOSPEL that Paul preached. The GOSPEL that establish the LAW / TORAH.
If you heard the GOSPEL who denies the LAW / TORAH, that is OTHER GOSPEL. And about this, Paul says :
Gal 1:8-9
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be ACCURSED. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be ACCURSED.
