  2. By God's Grace I'm saved. I recognize my sins and weaknesses but I also recognize my spiritual growth.
    Amen

  3. The good news was that just like the foreman showed the worker that a power saw was available, the LORD set up the Sanctuary System to show Israel the way to be reconciled to Him by faith. The 1st covenant with Israel was a grace-based, gospel-bearing, faith-inducing, mission-directed covenant and some of the children of Israel understood that, the evidence is recorded in Hebrews 11 of many of the Old Testament people who lived by faith in terms of the Sinai Covenant.

    Heb 11:32-40 MKJV  And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah; also David, and Samuel and the prophets,  (33)  who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,  (34)  quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the strangers.  (35)  Women received their dead raised to life again, and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.  (36)  And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings; yes, more, of bonds and imprisonments.  (37)  They were stoned, they were sawed in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented.  (38)  The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains and dens and caves of the earth.  (39)  And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, did not receive the promise,  (40)  for God had provided some better thing for us, that they should not be made perfect without us.
