 Worthy Brief - November 19, 2024

Pass the grace, please!

John 1:17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Having spent over 20 years living in Israel's Negev Desert, I've come to appreciate the importance of salt in maintaining proper hydration. "What in the world does salt have to do with grace and truth?", you ask. Well, I'll tell you.

Salt, as you might recall from chemistry class, is a combination of sodium and chlorine. Sodium is a harmless active element, while chlorine is a toxic gas responsible for bleach's unpleasant odor. Yet, when these two elements combine, they form salt—a substance widely used to preserve food and enhance its flavor.

In the same way, if we present the truth of the Gospel without grace, it often produces a very offensive and sometimes poisonous effect on those with whom we share it. However, if we combine the two, we'll be be able to preserve and bring out the delicious flavor of our faith!

Grace and truth came by Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ), the scripture says. How much more should we approach the world around us with these two important components?

Are you finding it challenging to share the Gospel effectively? Maybe you need more grace—or perhaps more truth. Let’s give our efforts to the Lord and ask Him to spice it up the way He likes! It’s harvest time! If we share the gospel full of grace and truth, we will surely reap a hundredfold!

Your family in the Lord with much agape love,

George, Baht Rivka, Obadiah and Elianna
