LIFE, LOVE, LIBERTY, FAITH AND GRACE =YESHUA


There is only One Lord of Life and He is the only One who gives abundance of Grace and Life. This Life is absolute Love; the Life of Love is the Life of God. Love is stronger than death. The only Law we are now under is the Law of Love, the Law of Liberty, the Law of Faith, and The Law of the Spirit of Life. All these different terms for Grace mean the same thing. Its not our law keeping that gives us righteousness with God, it’s our faith and trust in the finished work of Love that Jesus completed at the Cross.

God found a way to treat us based on what He had accomplished for us rather than expecting us to pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps AND TREATING US ACCORDING TO OUR OWN ACCOMPLISHMENTS. Try bootstrap pulling one day, it won’t even get you one millimetre off the floor. In spite of our best efforts, our own weight will displace any attempt at our best bootstrap pulling.

John 2:16 Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;


Of course we are still called to be diligent and fervent but this comes from rest in Him, it is the work of Grace that stems from His already completed covenant with man.
I often say that the best hurdle jumper can’t jump over Everest or any other hill or mountain either. Yet we can be totally physically inept and go and relax in a jetliner and we can soar over the highest mountains with ease, why, because we have placed ourself inside a higher power than our own leg jumps. We have seated ourselves inside a container of aerodynamic lift and overcoming mountains is no longer our job, it’s the jet liners job.

Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:


Why do we imagine we can achieve righteousness by our own efforts, it’s about as likely as being the cow that jumped over the moon. That’s a nursery rhyme; it can’t actually happen in real life.
Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:


Jesus can be compared to an elevator that goes to the 100th floor of a skyscraper. The Father is saying “ Get in, it’s a free ride, the fire escape has been destroyed by a terrorist gang but this elevator is lightning fast and guaranteed to get you all the way to the luxury penthouse, where five star accommodation and dining is waiting. There is nothing for you to do but just have the faith to get onboard and believe I’m telling you the truth.” Sadly many today, won’t get on Gods One Guaranteed Express Elevator. Instead many insist on trying to invent another way based on their own efforts. This often because of human pride, we want to be able to take the credit for our own salvation. Tragically all our own efforts end in failure, we can’t do it by our efforts. Read about Gods elevator to Heaven below :

EPH 2:6 AMPAnd He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together [giving us [a]joint seating with Him] in the heavenly sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One).

Ephesians 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:


I recall an old Christian song from the 1970s, the lyric went something like this, “I was trying to get through to Love but the devil blocked all the roads.” Gods Word talks about paths that seem right, but the end is death. Jesus said He was the Only Way. This sounds ludicrous to the natural mind of man, as we would all like to believe that all paths and religions are one. We reason by saying, “Why would God have only One Way, which seems unfair.” When we want to get to a certain geographical location, we know that we must receive clear and accurate directions as all roads don’t lead the same place.

If we are in Florida we know we must travel North on the Interstate system to get to New York. It would be very silly to suppose that we can travel West and say that all roads are one and it all gets to New York, as long as we really believe New York is out west and sincerely desire to get there. Sorry, NY is north, west will land you in LA.

Acts 4:12 (AMP) 12 And there is salvation in and through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by and in which we must be saved.
John 14:6-7 (PHILLIPS) | 6 “I myself am the road,” replied Jesus, “and the truth and the life. No one approaches the Father except through me.



In The natural world there are clear and concise directions needed to achieve success in reaching a destination. The same is true in the spiritual world. This is why God says it’s impossible to get results without Faith in Him and His Work.

Proverbs 16:25 (VOICE)25 Before every person lies a road that seems to be right but at the end of that road death and destruction wait.


If we can’t trust God, then who can we trust? He is the Biggest, the Best, the Most Awesome and He loves us with an Everlasting Love. Best of all he picked up all the costs of making an Express Way when there was no other Way.

PSALM 37: 3 Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed.
4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.
