(Job 8:6): If thou be just and upright, surely then he will watch over thee, and restore happiness to thy innocent habitation;<\/p>\n
On the subject of grace, Jews have always expressed themselves in the conditional tense, compared to Christians, who too often use the future tense or the compound past tense. yes, the Lord will do it ... ; he has already done it ... ; God has already given ; Etc.<\/strong> \"These statements are often made by Christians. Why do Jews prefer to speak in the conditional tense?<\/p>\n As for Christians, they're not at all wrong to speak so confidently, because when you read the Bible, you'll notice a large number of promises and prophecies. It's God's Word, and it always comes true. But there's one detail that Christians seem to ignore, and that's that every promise has a condition for fulfillment. God said to Cain (Genesis 4:7): \" Certainly, if you act well, you'll raise your face...<\/strong> \". In (Psalms 1:1), it says, \"Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked...\"<\/p>\n On the one hand, there are God's promised graces, and on the other, the conditions for their fulfillment. 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 us this: \" You should say, on the contrary: God willing, we'll live, and we'll do this or that.<\/strong> \"(James 4:15)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" That's what we'll do, God willing.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":376,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-375","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-etudes-biblique"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
