Daniel, 7:13


The Messiah; The Mediator between God and man has always existed... always exists, apart fromt he "Space/Time" construct, and creation.
We see Him in the instituted and ordained sacrifices from the very beginning, even before the Law of God was given through Moses.
Such as in the story about Cain and Able.

Which same is about God's grace and mercy and love for His people, and regarding redemption, and, "Salvation".

Borne of His Love.

Why? Because the human situation in the organic and material world construct is a fallen one, wherein, imperfection is evident. Or, should be evident to anyone objective enough to see it.

And so, self justification and through personal works of "righteousness" so called, may benefit others in the world, but, alone are useless with respect to a relationship with God.
Faith is primary, mingled with humility, which are required.


1 Sam 16:7 - "for *man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart."

"...but to this *man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word" - Isaiah 66:2 KJV


*(Or, "woman".)
