What in the World - The Covenants
By Les Feldick
There
is a vast amount of misunderstanding when it comes to the covenants.
First of all, the Body of Christ is not under any covenant. We are
latent under the Abrahamic Covenant, although Paul never uses that term.
When he speaks of covenants in Romans 11:27 and Galatians 3:15 & 17
it is to Israel and the New Covenant. Jeremiah 31:31 makes it
abundantly clear that the New Covenant, like the Abrahamic Covenant, the
Land Covenant, the Mosaic Covenant, and the Davidic Covenant, were all
between God and Israel. The New Covenant is waiting in the wings for the
1000 year reign of Christ, and then it becomes active. Read Jeremiah
31:32-34, all that was needed to fulfill the New Covenant, was also all
that was needed for our salvation. That is why I Corinthians 15:1-4 is
so clearly given to us. 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the
gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and
wherein ye stand 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what
I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered
unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died
for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and
that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Remember, Paul’s Gospel supersedes John 3:16, where there is not a word about the cross. Most of Christendom is missing it!
