The Word Is Grace

"The Word Is Grace" is brought to you by The Carpenter's Shop, located at 1201 East Elmore Street in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Our Sabbath services begin at 3:30 every Saturday afternoon. Listen with us as Bible teachers Jim Denman and Tim Terry examine our faith in Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus), with a Hebraic perspective. What did Jesus eat? How did He dress? Is the Torah still valid to believers today? Did He really say that there are only two laws that we have to follow now? Did God change His requirements for salvation after the cross? Is the Sabbath on Sunday or Saturday; was it changed? Join us as we seek answers to these questions, with balance and a humble reverence for God's Word.

What Would Jesus Do? Ask Me Saturday Morning!

What would Jesus do? Better yet, what did Jesus do? How did He walk out His life without sin? How does any of that apply to my life today? What exactly is sin anyway?
Have you ever thought about the question of WWJD in reference to Saturday? When you wake up on Saturday morning this weekend, just ask yourself, “What would Jesus do?” I can assure you that he would not go about his daily business, oblivious to God’s Sabbath – he would honor it like any Torah observant Jew! That sort of puts a twist on the way we view the WWJD bracelets, doesn’t it?

Jesus had (has) a very high regard of the Torah. If he were to have slipped up and broken just one of the Commandments, he would not have been eligible to be the Savior of mankind. In fact, he gave a seldom recognized commandment when he said, “think not that I came to destroy the law and the prophets; I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.” (Matt 5:17) did you catch that? “Think not.” He is telling us in no uncertain terms that we are not even to entertain the idea that he came to “destroy” or “do away with” the Law and the Prophets.

Jesus came to teach the Torah (law) correctly. He never changed the law, nor did he ever teach that men should not obey it – but that they should obey it in faith; faith which starts in the heart, and finishes with obedience.

When we go about our daily lives, it would be better if we were to do what Jesus did – not merely try to figure out what he would have done in a given circumstance. We can do this by walking in the same way that he did, in obedience to God’s Law (Torah).

Here at the Carpenter's Shop, we believe Yeshua when He states in Matthew 5:17 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill." We have come to know that our Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus), was a Torah observant, Jewish Rabbi who will one day return to reign from David's throne in Jerusalem. We believe that we are saved by the redemptive work that Yeshua accomplished on the cross; we are saved by the grace of God (Hashem), not by observing Torah. We observe Torah because we are saved, out of obedience to God's Word.
