If you are righteous and just, He will surely watch over you, And make your innocent home happy (Job 8:6).<\/strong><\/p>\n On the subject of grace, Jews have always expressed themselves in the conditional tense, compared to Christians, who all too often use the future tense or the compound past tense: \u00abYes, the Lord will do it; He has already done it; God has already given; Etc.\u00bb So many of these statements are very often in the mouths of Christians. Why do Jews prefer to speak in the conditional tense?<\/p>\n Christians are not at all wrong to speak so confidently. After all, if you read the Bible, you'll find a wealth of promises and prophecies. It's God's Word, and it always comes true. But there's one detail that Christians seem to ignore. Every promise has a condition for fulfillment. God said to Cain: Genesis 4:7: \"Surely, if you act well, you will lift up your face<\/strong> \". In Psalms 1:1 says: \u00abBlessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked\u00bb.<\/strong><\/p>\n On the one hand, there are God's promised graces, and on the other, the conditions for their fulfillment.<\/p>\n The right attitude is to express oneself in the conditional tense. This does not reflect a lack of faith, but highlights God's sovereignty in the fulfillment of His promises. James teaches here: \"You should say, on the contrary: If God wills, we will live, and we will do this or that.\" (James 4:15)<\/strong><\/p>\n P.
