Chesed - Thursday

Is the God of the Old Testament a rigid judge, while the God of the New Testament is entirely about grace? This week, Shelley and June Volk tackle this common church misconception head-on by dedicating five days to exploring a single, life-altering Hebrew word: Chesed ($C-H-E-S-E-D$). Appearing over 250 times in the Hebrew Scriptures, chesed is so rich that it takes a beautiful tapestry of English words to define it—encompassing kindness, loving kindness, mercy, goodness, favor, and compassion. It is the very word used for "grace" when the New Testament is translated back into Hebrew.  Shelly has served the body of Christ as a Pastor for over 35 years. He is a bible teacher and conference speaker on the subjects of The Kingdom of God, The Mystery of Israel & The Church and for God’s people to be prepared in their hearts for the end of this age. https://shellyandjunevolk.com/Support the show: https://shellyandjunevolk.com/product/partner-with-us-psalm-127-fund/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
