The title of this post;, it is not a question, as is, it is just a title.
So many people may have difficulty of their own accepting and/or interpreting favorable relativity of information on topic to a closer and helpful and shared relationship(also favorable with G-d) with God; including Jesus, and The Holy Spirit.
While I myself am not an educated scholar by standard recognized commendable credibility, I can pray and hope for myself and others; God listens and knows all .
Martin Luther acknowledged Grace as very important gift from God and I am not sure how he(Martin Luther) educates people to understand this , nor do I understand all the abstracts of dynamics Grace may be upon all or any of us; in all, accepting Grace from God, seeking Grace of God, of or from; nor all the analytical applications to determine with Love, the proving whether there is a presence of Gods Grace; the latter, that seems to be judgemental and a disruptive process, and so prefer not an approach of a scoff ….Psalms 1 may help outline some boundary ,and if I remember correctly Psalms 119 may share in some portions messages that relate a distance and range in parallel to(or with, or like) Psalms 1.
after a simple discusion with one who told me of their own interest in the subject of hope for their future, their reliance to honor what Jesus said was the greatest and second greatest commandments, as they see this evident in other people, and as they try to impliment with their own works in mind that there should be faith that things should just work; after all that it seemed the confusion by the often vivid displays in the world where it did not seem to work, though it may have only seemed to be in union, confidence declined some on a scale, and was not enough to help themselves share more relationship with God’s word (many things from the entire bible) were now vulnerable and to valuable to risk….what is this doing to their faith,I wonder?
I don’t know the exactnesses we must achieve or the descriptions to all the details, and I know there is a harmony that is shared with God’s Grace and our appretiation that comforts confidence and builds faith; whether that closes the distance we were ever away from God before I do not know either; The I Am , The Alpha and The Omega, and so even if we achieve some higher understanding and appretiation , we are just ourself’s accepting so much more of God,,, and I am not sure how repetitive or consistent or redundant our efforts may be, or seem, though we must do as we are told based on or despite what we know , or think we know, and our faith and Grace…?
I can guess only that God both sees our faith and applies His Grace in Parallel with His will and harmony to His word.
I searched for a few past posts with scriptures:
If our returns, our possibilities are possible, is it, or how can I put on His yoke; faith being solely and not by works, work and my works are still gonna happen,, so to give God credit and allow His Grace and enjoy and accept and Love, above all, all in harmony….
