The covenant of redemption as revealed in Genesis 3:15, is
the mutual agreement between the Father of spirits Genesis 1:26-27 and the Son Genesis 3:15, respecting the
redemption of sinners by Christ. Which will bring those who have chosen into Christ's Salvation as witnessed through the Lord's Passover meal, the Marriage of God, the Father of spirits nature and that of the Son's to mans first nature hidden within man. And once this is taken it no longer is required of man for by it he has passed from death into the spirit union of life found in Genesis 2:7. Wherein we're to no longer listen to the voice of the flesh which is fear and strife which mans religion promotes, hostility between man and God, man and man, nation against nation, government against government and kingdom of evil against the kingdom of God within mans soul. When mans soul is restored to God as the Father of spirits. For this is the teachings of Jesus who alone is Christ in who the Father of spirits dwelt in fulness in bodily form, reconciling all humanity to Himself.
The Covenant of Grace, the New
Covenant of Jeremiah 31 (Hebrews 8:6-13, 13:30) is that by which God
engages to bestow salvation in man, upon the condition that man shall
believe Christ and yield obedience to the terms of this Gospel and
His New Covenant in the principle of Life in Love, Truth, Faith, and
Grace in Hope and Joy which are tied together through Christ. Wherein
God has bond Himself to do what man couldn't do under the first nor
the Old Testament which had many parts but was in total one Covenant.
Which had its origin in Genesis 3:15 and 21 and that carried over
to Abraham and in him tied to the nations as one people with one
Father, the Father of spirit who Jesus introduced a new to Israel. Because Israel had lost sight of Moses teachings, by the evil of mans flesh voice. As
Christ in figurative language is therein revealed in His fulness.
Under the Old it was based on
mans works of obedience to the spoken Word. While under the New all
man is required to do is obey and have trust in Christ' Faith and
God's Faithfulness and His finished works. To this Revelation,
reveals a war in the heavenlies for mans trusting and compliance to
His Faithfulness. Which takes place shortly after Christ opened the
seals of the small book of the promised New Covenant which held the
secrets or mysteries hidden within the text of the Old. These
mysteries were revealed to the Apostle Paul and to him alone but are
there for our learning of Him whom they speak. Even to this day does
God speak to us through His Son if we but have ears to hear what the
Spirit is saying to our spirit. We don't need a Prophet but only the
ontological essence of Christ restored within our spirit. Jesus taught the
kingdom of God within each man and which is known through Love and the turning of the cheek toward all those who do evil. For
its upon these illuminations that Christ builds His Church or Body as
a separated people called out onto Him as His inheritance of promise
found in Psalm 2:6-8, which is also God's divine timetable of events.
This Psalm also contains a parenthetical break between verses 8 and 9
which we call the Church Age or the Age of Grace [for the gathering
of the peoples onto Christ as His heritage for the work He has
accomplished and is still accomplishing just as when He rested after
finishing creation with man on the seventh day] which has a time
period in duration just as Israel's had but it was broken not by God
but when the Hebrews rejected the kingdom offered them. During the
three and a half years of Jesus' ministry to the Hebrews wherein He
brought them the message of the spiritual kingdom which He represented, as
foretold by the scriptures and the Law, Prophets, Psalms and
Covenants. For they bear Him witness in totality. And seeing that He was and is the parent tree their branch was broken off.
Hebrews 6:12-20
“That
ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith (the essence of Christ) and
patience inherit the promises (the Genesis 3:15, 21 and 12:2-3). For when God made promise to Abraham,
because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, 'Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply
thee.' (Exodus
32:13; Deuteronomy 1:10) And so, after he had
patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men verily swear by
the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all
strife. Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs
of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to
lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to
lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an
anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which entered into
that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even
Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.”
To obtain the promise he,
Abraham, first was required to patiently endure and so it is also
required of us. God places all redeemed peoples within the Old
Testaments corral under a tutor, trainer, teacher and guide who in
our case is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of all Truth. For our
training and teaching which when properly allowed will bring us
through to the revealing of our utter undoneness and sins utter
sinfulness and our need of His Salvation. The thing Israel failed to
see or understand as they only had the Law as their tutor which they
saw as being material or literal and demanding self works, unlike
self death, which is where they missed it. Because they only saw the
physical and literal application of the Law and all that their
artifacts or instruments which where to be used in worship became.
Which the Law to them was an yoke to heavy to carry as it demanded
mans death for disobedience. As the literal letter of it only kills
because there was no life form provided within it. NO wiggle room or
repentance. And therefore those of our day who apply all in like
fashion or literally, are anti-Christ for they oppose themselves,
they kick against to pricks as Saul did.
WISDOM lies in recognizing life as the offspring of
the Father of spirits. Sadly people set for themselves the aims of
the bodily life, and in so seeking these aims torment themselves and
others. But they'll find full satisfaction in this life as meant for
them in the life of the spirit (in the still quite voice of the
conscious), if they'll accept the doctrine of the spiritual life and
of subduing and controlling the bodily voice of the flesh. For the LORD is not slow as many suppose.
2Peter 3:9
“The Lord is not slack
concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is
longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but
that all should come to repentance.”
Exodus 34:5-7
“And the LORD
descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the
name of the LORD. And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed,
'The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and
abundant in goodness and truth, Keeping mercy for thousands,
forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no
means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the
fourth generation.'”
Psalm 16:5
“The LORD is the
portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintains my lot.”
Psalm 23:3-6
“He restoreth my soul:
he leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea,
though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou prepare a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou
anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the
house of the LORD for ever.”
