Are all other covenants
void?
by Paul Sides
Or have they been fulfilled. Fulfilled means to MAKE WHOLE not void. Yahshua said he did not come to void them but to fulfill them and NOT one jot or title has been done away. Let us take a journey through the progressive revelation of YHWH to mankind. And test this claim... literally.
Do women still have pain in child birth?... Yes
Do men still work for a living... Yes
Does mankind still have dominion over the Earth... Yes
Are all the nations blessed by Abraham... Yes.
Are His people called Israel... Yes.
Are the Commandments of Love valid... Yes
Are we to honor the Sabbath... Yes
Do the Feasts portray the Messiah´s two comings... Yes.
Does David have an eternal throne... Yes.
The Edenic Covenant... Void?
Edenic - the Sabbath Covenant. Promise of Messiah through seed of a woman
Uh... still in effect is is ETERNAL. The EVERLASTING
COVENANT.
The Adamic/Noahic Covenants... Void?
Adamic/Noahic - rule the earth, be fruitful and multiply, men cursed with work,
women cursed with childbirth.
Uh... still in effect last I checked. Curse part not lifted until second coming.
Abrahamic Covenant... Void?
Abrahamic - promise that his sons will be as the sands of seashore and through
his seed all nations will be blessed.
Uh... still in effect last I checked.
Mosaic Covenant... Void?
Mosaic - Keep the Commandments to know right/wrong and identify sin.
Establish need within ourselves for Grace and a Saviour. Establish the
priesthood and requirements.
Uh... still in effect last I checked. Remains in effect eternally, God does not
change, right/wrong does not change and the Word says the Torah goes forth out
of Jerusalem during the Millennial Reign. And our very justice system is founded
on these moral laws. Yahshua fulfilled this covenant bringing grace in
light of our transgression making it whole. Serves as the High Priest in a
Higher Order.
Davidic Covenant... Void?
Davidic - His seed will reign on his throne eternally.
Uh... still in effect last I checked. Literal completion of this promise when
Yahshua returns.
So, that brings us to...
The New Covenant or Messianic or Yahshuaic
Which is the
fulfillment of all Covenants which are still active and the addition of
ONE NEW COMMAND, to be in covenant with YHWH through the blood of the Messiah to
obtain GRACE!
Yahshuaic
-- King of the Sabbath (Edenic fulfillment)
-- Son of God through Adam (Edenic fulfillment)
-- Ruler of the Earth (Adamic/Noahic fulfillment)
-- Salvation through faith in the Messiah (Adamic fulfillment).
-- Seed of a woman through Mary (Adamic fulfillment)
-- final sacrifice for "sin" against transgressing the laws providing GRACE in
light of transgression (fulfillment of Mosaic).
-- High Priest mediator (fulfillment of Mosaic).
-- Righteous King ruler from the Kingly line of David through Joseph (Davidic
fulfillment).
To FULFILL is to make WHOLE. NOT to destroy. And the FINAL fulfillment will be
upon the Second Coming when labor/child birth is lifted, King returns to reign
literally, etc. And even then, it will be the TORAH that goes forth from
JERUSALEM not the Word of the Pope out of ROME.
The POPE will be burning in hell for eternity. The False Prophet.
Yahshua was the final piece of all the previous covenants, the means of
salvation not found in the others. The final revelation in the process of
PROGRESSIVE REVELATION.
