TWIG - The Word Is Grace is brought to you by The Carpenter's Shop, located at 1201 East Elmore Street in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Our Sabbath services begin at 3:30 every Saturday afternoon. Listen with us as Bible teachers Jim Denman and Tim Terry examine our faith in Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus), with a Hebraic perspective. What did Jesus eat? How did He dress? Is the Torah still valid to believers today? Did He really say that there are only two laws that we have to follow now? Did God change His requirements for salvation after the cross? Is the Sabbath on Sunday or Saturday; was it changed? Join us as we seek answers to these questions, with balance and a humble reverence for God's Word.

Mon, 29 June 2009  Foolish Galatians! How did you get saved in the first place? Was it by what you did? Your flesh? Or was it by the Word of God?These are some harsh words from Paul, but listen to his heart; Paul doesn't want anyone to walk in vein. This week we see Paul addressing the question of how they received the Spirit; he wasn't asking them about how they obeyed the Spirit. Paul is making a point; they could do nothing to earn their salvation. How did you receive the Spirit? I was a raging alcoholic when I gave my life to Messiah. The day after I placed my trust in Him I was still a raging alcoholic... but I had received His Spirit! I began a walk with Jesus that would strip those things from my life, but on that first day, I was still covered with addictions. I received the free gift that He offered me - there was no performance of the flesh on my part. I was, like the Galatians, saved by faith in Messiah by grace; so I could walk out the good works that were laid before me at the foundations of the earth. And that is where the Torah comes in; I am called to walk in obedience to God's instruction (Torah) not so I can be saved... but because I am! May the Lord bless you and keep you, Shabbat shalom!
