So in a way yes there is some connection, in another way maybe not. I do have a pretty big Jewish nose though... Lol! I do as well, but as far as I know my ancestors are all from England, Scotland and Ireland. I do love smoked Salmon and cream cheese on bagels. :wink: Okay, carry on. 8) There were ...

And a warm shalom to you also.... Part of my background is german Jew, but I'm a Christian so I consider myself a gentile also.

When was the NC presented to Israel and when did she spurn it? John 19:14-15; 1 Cor. 11:25 <snipped> John 19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar. Was Pilate God's ...

When was the NC presented to Israel and when did she spurn it? John 19:14-15; 1 Cor. 11:25 Paul never says the gentiles were grafted into the House of Israel but into the commonwealth of Israel. So what? The house was destroyed, as we no longer worship on that mountain (John 4:20-24), but in Jerusa...

Just curious. Are you Jewish or a Jew for Jesus? I'm not trying to trip you up. I'm a big supporter of Israel and believe that Jews are still a great part of God's plan..

Cheers,

In what light do you see the destruction of the Temple? The destruction of the Temple was prophesied by Daniel and Yeshua and was a sign to the world that Yeshua was the Promised Messiah/Prophet. My ideas on why the destruction of the Temple and the exile of Israel occurred are just possibilities. ...

quote="Turgonian" The Old Covenant has never officially been abolished, but everyone is welcome into the New Covenant. Including Gentiles. Take a look at Yahweh's Covenants in the New Testaments . Paul's epistles make quite clear that the Gentiles become a part of Israel (i.e., God's cove...

quote="Turgonian" <snipped> P.S. An even better (and more coherent) article is The Fulfillment of the New Covenant . I read this article. It is very wrong. The author is saying why another author's idea that there are two new covenants, one for the Jews (Jer.31) and another for the gentil...

"B. W." - Here is a list of scriptures that I hope will explain the matter of the New Covenant better: Isaiah 41:1-8, Isaiah 42:6-7, Isaiah 49:6, Isaiah 49:22, Isaiah 60:1-5, Isaiah 62:1-2, Jeremiah 31:31-34 After reading these — you'll see that the Gentiles are included in the New Covena...

"Turgonian" That has not happened yet. And I don't see many churches whose members have that Law on their hearts. Most serve ham for their christmas dinners. The dietary laws were abolished on the Cross, just like the other ceremonial laws. It's a new covenant, remember? Not like the old ...

="Turgonian You misread something. Jer. 31:31-32: ' "The time is coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. It will not be like the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to lead...

Jer.31 does say that when the NC comes to be, the Torah Law will be written on the hearts and minds of the House of Israel and the House of Judah whose fathers came out of Egypt. That has not happened yet. And I don't see many churches whose members have that Law on their hearts. Most serve ham for...

[quote="Turgonian"]That's not true... 'New Testament' means 'New Covenant'. The New Covenant was established at Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came to write the law on the hearts of the people.[/quote] [color=blue]Please show me where it says that the Holy Spirit brought in the New Covena...

[quote="Jac3510"]It's not so much another covenant with the Jews as it is a future fulfillment. It's the difference in receiving the promise verses receiving what was promised. Here's a link to an [b]excellent[/b] article on the subject: http://www.etsjets.org/jets/journal/15/15-1/15-1-pp0...
