God's Favor and Grace

We no longer live by the old 10 commandments that follows the law that causes bondage, sickness and weakness. We now live under God's favor and grace in the New Testament after Jesus' resurrection. It is no longer doing to please God but done by Jesus so that we can have our covenant with our Heavenly Father. Jesus was born poor so that we can be rich, he was lashed with 40 strokes so that we can be healed, he was forsaken, so that we can call God our Abba Father. Jesus received curses so that we can get his blessings as a child of God. So it is not by merit or work that we earn our place in heaven but to proclaim that Jesus is our Lord and Saviour can we get to heaven for eternity - and that is a very very long time.
