Exceeding Grace, Surpassing Righteousness
Torah of the Kingdom: Exceeding Grace, Surpassing Righteousness
God's grace represents loving kindness and covenant loyalty, not a reflection of human worthlessness. While we cannot earn God's love, we inherently deserve it as His created children. Jesus's teachings on adultery and divorce emphasize the importance of covenant faithfulness and protecting the vulnerable. True grace elevates people's worth while calling them to demonstrate selfless love and loyalty in their relationships. These teachings challenge us to extend genuine grace to others while maintaining high standards of faithfulness.

Kingdom Righteousness
Torah of the Kingdom: Kingdom Righteousness
Matthew 5:16 through 19
As Yeshua begins to interpret and apply the Torah, He exposes those who have corrupted and burdened the people with their own self-serving interpretations. He hints at just how far their narcissism will eventually take them as He explains that righteousness begins with recognizing the value of every human life.
