Concept of Grace

One of the most misunderstood topics in all of the scripture according to the western Gentile mindset is the concept of grace and its relationship to the law. Christian theologians incessantly fantasize that "grace" was invented on the day of Pentecost, and until the day that Peter baptized three thousand people in his second story bathtub, an angry God ruled the universe by his ridiculously impossible "law".

True "grace" began in the Garden of Eden - it was administered by an angel with a flaming sword that kept Adam from making a mistake that would be eternally uncorrectable. Five thousand years ago, "Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD" before the deluge wiped the majority of humanity from the face of the earth. The word grace appears over five times more often in the Torah than it does in Paul's writings - but that does not mean that "the age of grace" ended at Pentecost. God's grace is just as eternal as his law - which is admittedly sweeter than honeycomb and more precious than fine gold (according to King David who was an obvious recipient of Yah's grace).

We grow up with prejudiced filters that skew our perceptions of the Almighty and his eternal plan. Todd's Bennett's seventh volume in the series, The Law and Grace, removes those blinding filters and gives a heavenly perspective to a unified subject that has been ignorantly twisted into tangents as diverse as War and Peace. This insightful work is an essential clarification that effectively defines the foundation of the Messianic movement.
