Grace and Truth

Now that we’ve look at the Name of God given to Moses and the Messiah’s Name Y’shua (Jesus), let’s look at His mission – to bring Grace and Truth.

John 1:14 (KJV) “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” 

Grace

pronunciation: chen (guttural h)
trans-literal spelling: (chn)
Hebrew:  חן
meaning: separate, life; secure, people; and my favorite: life Seed!

We are to live a separated life:

Proverbs 18:1 (KJV) “Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. “

2 Corinthians 6:17-18 (KJV) “Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. “

We are to live a peculiar life

1 Peter 2:9 (KJV) “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:”

Psalms 91:1-2 (KJV) “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.”

Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

The Jewish rabbis teach that het (ח) in the word life (חיים), whose full expression is love; so much so that life literally uses the plural form (ים–) of alive – “alives”.

John 10:10 (KJV) “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”

Truth

pronunciation: ‘emet
trans-literal spelling: (amt)
Hebrew: אמת
meaning: leader, waters, covenant

The spelling is the first, last and almost middle letters of the Hebrew alphabet and in order. As I’ve show in another study, the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet refers to Jesus (the sacrifice, cross). Since this is Jesus, it’s not surprising that in the midst of this two-letter word is the letter that represents water and what’s the middle of a man, his belly. Therefore truth is Jesus, the Leader (Sacrifice) with waters that brings about a covenant.

John 7:38 (KJV) He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

Psalms 36:9 (KJV) For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.”

Jeremiah 2:13 (KJV) For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.”

Jeremiah 31:31 (KJV) Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:”

Proverbs 18:4 (KJV) “The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.”

Isaiah 58:11 (KJV) “And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.”

John 4:14 (KJV) “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.”

John 14:6 (KJV) “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
