Q12.
a. What does verse 16 mean?
... we have all received grace in place of grace already given…
In Old Testament, the grace was given as the gift of law through Moses (law covenant);
In New Testament, the grace and truth were given through Jesus Christ (new covenant).
Q13. Explain the following phrases:
“The law was given through Moses.”
The grace was given as the gift of law through Moses (God’s law covenant)
“Grace came through Jesus Christ.”
The grace was given through Jesus Christ (God’s new covenant).
“Truth came through Jesus Christ.”
Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. The truth is only through Jesus we are able to reunite with God and are set free from the sin and death.
Q14. What is your response to the intimacy and love that existed between Father and Son long before Jesus was born into this world? (See John 1:18.)
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
With the intimacy and love, in closest relationship with the Father,
Father has made Son known.
Believe the truth, trust the Father, and read the Word, then a closer relationship will be generated between the Father and us. Then, we won’t be deceived by this world because the spirit will be with us all the time.
