The Covenant is an inextricable part of the Scriptures. Scripture is identified by Covenant i.e. Old Testament and New Testament. It is anything but "a different question".

How does a covenant which is decayed and vanished (Hebrews 8:13), and which has been replaced by a better covenant established on better promises (Hebrews 8:6); stand on its own? Under the definition of a testament, which is a will, a new will/testament revokes and replaces an old...

John 6 57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. 58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. If Peter didn't say what...

Remind us again what "this is that" means. That's what Peter said. That's what the Holy Spirit inspired him to say.

If you're unable to understand it, just leave it for those who can.

Why do you think that I think that the fulfillment was restricted only to Pentecost? The prophecy declared "And it shall come to pass in the last days", plural. (Acts 2:17) Scripture declares that the last days had already begun: Hebrews 1 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners...

It should be evident that when the term "orthodox" with a small "o" is used in connection with the historical true Christian faith, it is not referring to historical apostate Romanism. But predictably, you're incapable of that understanding. Which cult(s) do you belong to?

Peter accounted for what Joel said. I believe Peter.

I'm fully confident that the united wisdom of 17 historical centuries of the defense of the true faith overwhelmingly exceeds that of two centuries of modernist denial and rejection.

Joel and Peter were inspired by the Holy Spirit. Did the Holy Spirit twist Scripture?

It is to :laughing:. Link to my post declaring "no more DNA left of Israel today".

Oh, wait. Maybe Paul addressed himself as "father". That would be an early variation of the later song "I'm My Own Grandpa". That must be the explanation. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Thanks for the guffaws. Who in Scripture addressed Stephen, Paul, John, or Philemon as "father"? Book, chapter, verse, please.

Whom to believe? 1. The Holy Spirit through Peter who declared, "this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;" 2. Those who deny "this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;" Do those need a hint?

Thus say the cults. What to believe? 1. More than 17 centuries of united historical orthodox defense of the true faith. 2. Less than two centuries of modernist denial of united historical orthodox defense of the true faith. No hint necessary. I'll take #1. Every time. See below. Nothing...

The NT is clear that the OT fulfillments are realized in Christ and in those who are in Christ (Galatians 3:16; 2 Corinthians 1:20; Romans 9:6-8; Hebrews 1:1-2; et al). In particular, the disposition of Jacob and his family line is entirely dependent upon whether or not they are in Christ i.e...

Who addressed Paul as father? Answer: No one.

And here I thought that the Bible was filled with it. :laughing:

Prophetic events fulfilled in and by Christ, His First Coming, His Gospel, and His Church are the clearest of all.

If you were in disagreement with 17 centuries of unanimous historical Christian orthodoxy, would you be right?
