Unity

One weird thing is that most, or I actually think all other religions around the world will teach salvation is by works. They say if you do good deeds for others you can work your way to a "paradise" or heaven. Some religions go so far as to say that you can become a god, this appeals to man's pride. Just as when pride entered into Satan and he said, "I will be like the Most High G-d", became a fallen angel, and he became G-d's enemy "on a leash," though.  Even in the Garden of Eden satan tempted Eve by telling her if she ate the fruit that she would become like G-d, or like a god.
Only through Yeshua we are offered grace, a free gift.
Yeshua says yes I gave you life and I gave you power to choose, it is your choice. So we choose love and give our life to Yeshua and rest in Him, or we choose pride and don't really experience grace, trying to work and climb up to heaven another way besides through Yeshua.

(John 14:6 NKJV) Yeshua said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

The deeper I get into knowing and experiencing G-d one thing becomes more and more clear. That is, all that I am, have ever been, and all that I ever will be is totally one hundred percent a result of G-d's grace. Every sin I do causes me to become more dependent upon G-d's grace, causing me to decrease and Yeshua to increase in my life (but that's not a reason to sin). Every success of  mine is really G-d's. I can't add to His grace or take away from it.

(Ephesians 2:1-10 NKJV) And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, {2} in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, {3} among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. {4} But G-d, who is rich in mercy (compassion), because of His great love with which He loved us, {5} even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Yeshua  (by grace you have been saved), {6} and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Yeshua Ha'Meshiach (Jesus Christ), {7} that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Yeshua Ha'Meshiach (Jesus Christ). {8} For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of G-d, {9} not of works, lest anyone should boast. {10} For we are His workmanship, created in Christ for good works, which G-d prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

The "works" that we do for G-d are the works that He has prepared in advance that we should walk in them, they are not because of our efforts. They are G-d's works that we move in being guided by His Holy Spirit of Love. This is why G-d made you and me and put us where we are.
