If the New Covenant was not in effect, then the promises of the New Covenant would be future also. You may think you are right, but you have a lot more to learn. What you've done is like a plane that starts out flying a little off course, and winds up in a completely different country than his...

No, the New Covenant was made with Israel on the Day of Pentecost, to all who accepted Jesus. The Gentiles were grafted into this present covenant with Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. THEN the partial blindness given to national Israel for rejecting Christ will be removed...

Our covenant is based on the blood of Jesus. What represents the blood of Jesus in the Church today? The answer is the sign of the covenant.

What are you saying about circumcision? It is not the sign of the New Covenant. And just a general note: all covenants have a sign of the covenant.

The Old Covenant had to do with actions: murder. New Covenant - love. Opposite:hate The New Covenant are laws written on our hearts. Hebrews 9: 13 For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, 14 how much more...

It was. Gentiles are only grafted in. Romans 11

Haven't you discerned what Jesus is saying in the Sermon on the Mount? "You have heard it said of old (Old Covenant) thou shalt not..., BUT I SAY UNTO YOU...(New Covenant.) Curious. Is this your theory or what denomination? Good night, Mark. I've had a very interesting day, so again I will have...

Depending what entails 'faith' I agree. If you believe Jesus is the Christ and know all about Him, even the demons know that. I'm not saying that is what you believe, but unfortunately some do. I believe 1 John 3:18-24, having to do with not going against your conscience, which to me is the same...

So you believe when Jesus was teaching the disciples the Lord's Prayer and the next verse that was under the Old Covenant and that He was teaching works? What Jesus taught His disciples, including the Sermon on the Mount was introducing the New Covenant, like the writing of His will, that would...

If Jesus freed us from all sin then why is He still cleansing sin while walking in the Spirit? If you are free, you are not committing known sin in the first place. He doesn't say His blood continues to cleanse lawless sins of the flesh while His children commit them. We wouldn't be His child if...

I'm at the start of reading your response, and will read the rest later, but this I want to clear up right now. You misunderstand what I believe to be the second type of sin. We commit sins that are unknown to us. We have no knowledge of them as being sins, but they make us less than perfect...

Hi Mark. I know we've gone over this many times, but we have so many things in common, I forget what we don't understand in the same way. But here is one: "I live in sinful flesh, but Jesus keeps me clean." Romans 8:9 says we are NOT in the flesh while walking in the Spirit, so these are not...

I totally agree.

In other words to become a Christian.

Acts of the Apostles 2:38-39 38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many...

But mercy and grace are not so that when we sin there is no punishment. In my opinion that is the theology that needs tweaking. It is true Christians will not receive punishment, but it isn't because the blood of Jesus is like some invisibility cloak that covers us while we continue to sin...

Let me ask you what you believe the "gift" is in this Romans 5 passage about Adam's sin, and what that gift does for us in this life? Knowing what this gift is can change one's theology. 18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so...

Are you talking about 'future' sins are automatically cleansed because they've been paid for? Does a true Christian commit murder, adultery, stealing, etc. and just do as they please?

Except your contempt for women teachers.

Yes, and when it was built where it was, don't think for a minute He didn't foresee my need for it. You are confusing answered prayer with miracles. No, it didn't appear out of thin air. LOL
