Tami Weissert: The Law doesn't hold a candle to salvation. Here's Woodrow Kroll with the Bible Minute.

Woodrow Kroll: If the message delivered by angels is the Law, how much greater is the message delivered by the Lord Jesus which is the grace of God on our behalf?

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal [everlasting] life" (John 3:16, NKJV). That's Jesus' message, as opposed to "keep the Law and please God"--that's the message delivered by angels.

So, if you think angels are superior to Jesus, you also must think that keeping the Law is superior to salvation; and it isn't! The whole point of the New Testament is to say that God is bringing to us something filled with His grace--not something we have to do in order to please God--it's something already done on our behalf by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Tami Weissert: It's all about grace. Find it in God's Word, at bibleminute.org.
