    What are we really dealing with here?

    In the general sense it is true that the Abrahamic covenant was not the first covenant God ever made with man, but it is this covenant with Abraham around which all other covenants revolve. The first covenant that God ever made with man was with Noah, when He swore that He would never again...

    Prophecy= Psalm 83 War=Israel against Iran,Syria,backed by Russia

    Continued from previous post. Thus it becomes apparent that before looking for the invasion of Gog from the land of Magog we should first look for this Arab invasion which is to precede it. What say the Scriptures in this respect? “Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold your peace, and do not...

    Prophecy= Psalm 83 War=Israel against Iran,Syria,backed by Russia

    Typically when we think about the Gog and Magog incident we picture a great Russia hoard in coalition with various Arab nations coming together to do battle against Israel, but is this correct, is this truly what is going to take place or have we simply jumped to this conclusion without first...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    Actually in a sense when one enters into covenant relationship with the Father it is “all or nothing”, that is to say there is no turning back, once the contract (the covenant) of sacrifice has been made it cannot be rescinded, that which has been accepted of the Lord and laid upon his altar...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    Who are “We”? “WE” are the church, the body of Christ, “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 9

    “Behold the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant which they...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 8

    Having we hope now determined who specifically the Mediator is we would now like to address our last question, where and when does this mediation begin? More to the point where (or with whom precisely is the new covenant mediated) and when will this mediation commence? “Behold the days are...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 6

    We continue once again with our forth question, who specifically is the Mediator? In this study we would like to take a quick look at the “Testator” to see how this is related to the Mediator. Testator: a person who has made a will or given a legacy. “And for this reason he is the Mediator of...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 5

    Who specifically is the Mediator? As we had stated at the end of our last post the typical answer to this question is Christ, but who is THE Christ? What say the Scriptures? “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    It is evident that we see things differently in respects to this subject, perhaps in time the Lord willing things may change, for now we'll just have to agree to disagree and move on to other subjects.

    Who is Nehushtan? Why isn't Christ Nehushtan? Why hasn't your pastor ever so much as mentioned...

    Nehushtan The word occurs but once, namely, in 2 Kings 18:4. “He (King Hezekiah of Juda) removed the high places and broke the sacred pillars, cut down the wooden imagea]" and broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made; for until those days the children of Israel burned incense to...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 4

    Once again our question: Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation? The Scriptures indicate that the two parties are God on the one hand and the “sons of disobedience” on the other; those not yet reconciled to him, “children of wrath”, out of harmony both with himself and with his...

    “The Mediator and the New Covenant” Part 3

    Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation? In the general sense we have already addressed this question by affirming that the dispute is between God and the “sons of disobedience” (Eph 5:6), that it is these two parties who have need of mediation in order to facilitate...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    There’s a big difference between dying for Christ and dying with Christ, we DO NOT die for Christ, it was he who died for us. However in God’s plan which was laid out before the very foundation of the world He intended from the start that the Christ would be composed of many members all shaped...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    You state: And.... now we're just not seeing eye to eye at all. Tell me this: if the New Covenant has not come to the Gentiles yet, why was Paul taking it to them? (1 Cor 11:25, 2 Cor 3:6). In Reply, you are reading into these verses that which is not intended. Let us take a look at the...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    There is a distinctive difference between the true followers of Christ and the nominal professors. The Lord’s declaration is that all who would follow Him must, like Him, be willing to take up their cross and walk in His steps, to be baptized with the same baptism that He was baptized with, and...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    You state: Yeah, see... you had me for most of that. I agree that it is not a necessary act for salvation (although it should be considered an appropriate response to it!). And I'd even say that a high degree of self-sacrifice was necessary for growth and function within the Body...for many...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    You state: This Psalm is interesting, isn't it? Because it does speak of 'covenant', but we do not see, any time before it, when such a "covenant of sacrifice" was specifically instigated. In Reply, Actually a type of this covenant was shown when Abraham offered up his son Isaac in sacrifice...
