The Covenant.
The Covenant.
God has made a Covenant with us who Believe in Jesus.
In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, This cup is the “New Covenant” in my blood, which is poured out for you. (Luke 22:20)
God brings The Covenant to the Table, “we bring Faith and Trust”.
God is not man, man can lie, they can and do break Covenants; “God Cannot”.
Our Daily Nugget
is letting us know that we are “Safe and Secure” due to the “Blood Covenant” of Jesus. We do not have to pay sin’s debt, for Jesus has “Paid It All”.
Covenant - A solemn, binding promise or agreement between God and humanity. Unlike a temporary business contract, a biblical covenant creates an “unbreakable family or relational bond”, often sealed with an oath and a sign
(like a rainbow or circumcision).
Blood Covenant - A solemn, unbreakable agreement sealed by the “shedding of blood”, representing a total and
permanent commitment between God and humanity.
There are Blood Covenants and Word Covenants.
The Blood Covenant was prophesied in the Old Testament and fulfilled by Jesus the Christ, this provides “Permanent Forgiveness” of sins and “inner spiritual transformation”; the New Creature through Grace.
God Finds “Joy In Forgiving”; “So Should We”.
The Covenant brings “Salvation from God to us” and “from us to one another”. To accept Jesus the Christ as Lord and Savior creates a Covenant between, God, Jesus, and each neighbor, one to another. The bible tells us that we are to Love our Neighbors “As We Love Ourselves”. This is not just a good idea, this is a Critical Part of Salvation and a Command From God. A racist cannot obey this Command.
The Covenant overrides, religion, tradition, race and political parties.
Nothing can separate us from the “Love of Jesus”, Due to The Covenant.
Nothing can separate Believers from Loving One Another, Due to The Covenant.
