The following addresses two major points of the problems from the 1500s, that is, righteousness and only faith.

These passages show that love and faith make us righteous.

Ephesians 6: 10 Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. 11 Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. 13 Therefore, put on the armor of God, that you may be able to resist on the evil day and, having done everything, to hold your ground. 14 So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate, 15 and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield, to quench all (the) flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 With all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the Spirit.

I Thessalonians 5: 8 But since we are of the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate
of faith and love and the helmet that is hope for salvation.

**These passages show that love rules fatih. **

**Also, His love is poured into our hearts.
**
Also, that faith without love is nothing.

**St. John 16: 27 **For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

Romans 5: 3 Not only that, but we even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, 4 and endurance, proven character, and proven character, hope, 5 and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us.

**I Corinthians 13: 13 So faith, hope, love remain, these three; **but the greatest of these is love.

I Corinthians 13: 2 And if I have the gift of prophecy, and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.


I believe also that these are major points for Christian and Jewish relations.

The Jews believe in the Messiah and that He has not yet been given.

The Christians believe in the Messiah and He was sent as a gift of love from God.

Christian love gives the Christian her faith.

The Jews have the gift of faith through Abraham.

The Christians have the gifts of love and faith. Love is the completion or perfection of faith of the faith of Abraham.

Futhermore, typology proclaimed the Messiah and Love completed the promises and prophecies.
