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.

"Legalistic, or Obedient Servants?” John 8:12 - 8:32

Yeshua said, “If you abide in my words, you are my disciples indeed. You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” We have all heard the latter part of the phrase, “the truth will make you free,” but do we realize that there is a stipulation in the first part? Jesus said IF you abide in my word; that means that the “being set free” part of the phrase is contingent upon our abiding in His word.
What is His word? From what are we being set free? If Yeshua gives us a commandment, and we obey it, is it called legalism, or obedience? Yeshua claims this week to speak not his own words, but only the words of the Father. As believers in Yeshua it would profit us greatly to find out what the words are that we are to be “abiding in,” wouldn’t it? I would offer up the suggestion that the words of the Father are still the words of Torah; therefore, the words of Jesus, being the words of the Father, would have to be… Well, you’ll just have to listen along with us this week, as Jim goes through the middle of John Chapter 8. Shabbat Shalom!

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.
