    Doctrine of the Mosaic Law.
    Point 1. Definition.
    a. The Mosaic Law means God’s ordinances, statues, rules, and commandments.
    b. The Mosaic Law was the divine standard that God uses to demonstrate the sinfulness of the human race as well as His principles of establishment.
    Point 2. Who are the recipients of the Mosaic Law?
    The Mosaic Law was given to Israel as the first client nation to God in BC 1440, EXO 19:3;
    LEV 26:46; ROM 3:19; 9:4.
    The Mosaic Law was never given to Gentiles, DEU 4:8; ROM 2:12-14, because Israel was the client nation.
    The Mosaic Law was never given to the Church, ACT 15:5,24; ROM 6:14; GAL 2:19.
    Point 3. Limitations of the Mosaic Law.
    0250. Following the Mosaic Law cannot justify or adjust us to the integrity of God, ACT 13:39;
    PHI 3:9.
    Through Him everyone who believes [who acknowledges Jesus as his Savior] is cleared and freed from every charge from which he could not be justified and freed by the Law of Moses and given right standing with God.
    PHI 3:9 and that I may be found in Him, not having my own righteousness derived from the source of the Law, but that [righteousness] which is acquired by means of faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from the source of the God at the point of faith,
    GAL 2:16 knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified.
    We know that a man is justified or reckoned righteous and in right standing with God not by works of the Law, but only through faith and [absolute] reliance on and adherence to and trust in Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
    By keeping legal rituals and by works no human being can ever be justified (declared righteous and put in right standing with God).
    PSA 143:2 And do not enter into judgment with Thy servant, For in Thy sight no man living is righteous.
    JOB 4:17-18 “Can mankind be just before God? Can a man be pure before his Maker? He puts no trust even in His servants; And against His angels He charges error.”
    JOB 9:2-4 So what’s new? I know all this. The question is, “How can mere mortals get right with God?” If we wanted to bring our case before him, what chance would we have? Not one in a thousand! God’s wisdom is so deep, God’s power so immense, who could take him on and come out in one piece?
    ECC 7:20 Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who {continually} does good and who never sins.
    b. The Mosaic Law cannot provide eternal salvation, GAL 3:21-26.
    Its purpose was to make obvious to everyone that we are, in ourselves, out of right relationship with God, and therefore to show us the vanity of devising some religious system for getting by our own efforts what we can only get by waiting in faith for God to complete His promise.
    But the Scriptures picture all mankind as sinners shut up and imprisoned by sin.
    This is so that the inheritance and blessing which was promised through faith in Jesus Christ (the Messiah) might be given (released, delivered, and committed) to [all] those who believe [who adhere to and trust in and rely on Him].
    c. The Mosaic Law cannot provide the filling of the Holy Spirit, necessary for the execution of the Christian way of life and-or the execution of the PPOG.
    Was it from observing a law of rituals or from a message of faith?
    Having begun [your new life spiritually] with the [Holy] Spirit, are you now reaching perfection [by dependence] on the flesh?
    You’ll be in bondage and slavery like so many believers are today!
    Does the God who lavishly provides you with His own presence, His Holy Spirit, working things in your lives you could never do for yourselves, does He do these things because of your strenuous moral striving or because you trust Him to do them in you?
    Does He Who supplies you with His marvelous [Holy] Spirit and works powerfully and miraculously among you do so on the grounds of your doing what the Law demands, or because of your believing in and adhering to and trusting in and relying on the message that you heard?
    d. The Mosaic law cannot solve the problems of the old sin nature and real spiritual death,
    ROM 8:2-4.
    The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificently cleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death.
    God has done what the Law could not do because its power was being weakened by the flesh [the entire nature of man without the Holy Spirit].
    Sending His own Son in the appearance of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, [God] condemned sin in the flesh [subdued, overcame, deprived it of its power over all who accept that sacrifice].
    God went for the most strategic attack aimed at the enemy, the jugular, as it were, when He sent His own Son.
    The law, weakened as it always was by fractured human nature, could never have done that.
    The law always ended up being used as a Band-Aid on sin instead of a deep healing of it.
    Our lives governed not by the standards and according to the dictates of the flesh, but controlled by the Holy Spirit.
    The point is that the Law cannot even provide a righteousness acceptable to God, let alone salvation, and it must remain in its proper setting as the basis for the function of a nation.
    In other words, the Mosaic Law defines the problem and points to the solution, but it doesn’t provide the solution.
    The equality factor of the Church-age, equal privilege and equal opportunity, did not exist under the Mosaic Law.
    To be a priest under the Mosaic Law you had to be born into the tribe of Levi.
    Under the PPOG we are not only priests but royal priests.
    The Law never provided for the indwelling of the Trinity in the body of all believers.
    The Law never provided for the filling of the Holy Spirit.
    The Law never provided for the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
    The Law never provided for the 100% availability of divine power.
    The law never provided for a dispensation of only historical trends and no prophecy, so that every believer can have great historical impact.
    The believer’s fabulous wealth in the escrow account.
    The privileges of our Heavenly Citizenship.
    The Shekinah glory indwelling with His people in a unique way.
    The mystery doctrine of the pre-designed plan of God.
    Our very own portfolio of invisible assets.
    The two unique royal commissions.

    **2** Connective kai - kaiV + definite article he - h - the + compound noun nomothesia - nomoqesiva.
    Nomos = the law.
    Tithemi = the deposit or the gift of the Law.
    **3** This is also a reference to establishment principles whereby both the believer and the unbeliever can understand the blessing that comes to the client nation from following establishment principles found in the Law.
    **4** D.I.#1 - Volition
    D.I.#2 - Marriage
    D.I.#3 - Family
    D.I.#4 - Nationalism
    **5** A bureaucracy is the administration of a government through bureaus or departments staffed with non-elected officials.
    **6** For when God established Israel as the first client nation in history, He gave the Mosaic Law in order to define the divine laws, the divine principles for the function of human government.
    **7** In the time in which they were first given to Moses by God, they applied to a theocracy [a nation under God], which is obviously the ideal form of government.
    **8** The more people involved in a decision, the worse the decision is. The fewer people involved the better, and even a stupid person making a decision all by himself, is better than a thousand people of varying mentalities making the same decision.
    **9** The more people involved in a decision, the greater the accumulation of old sin natures.
    **10** Doctrine of the Mosaic Law.
    Point 1. Definition.
    a. The Mosaic Law = God’s ordinances, statues, rules, and commandments.
    b. The Mosaic Law was the divine standard that God uses to demonstrate the sinfulness of the human race as well as His principles of establishment.
    **11** The law had a perfectly legitimate function. Without its clear guidelines for right and wrong, moral behavior would be mostly guesswork.
    **12** Sin simply did what sin is so famous for doing: using the good as a cover to tempt me to do what would finally destroy me.
    **13** GAL 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
    **14** Codex One is the Ten Commandments or the decalogue. The Ten Commandments define human freedom in terms of morality, privacy, property, and authority. The Ten Commandments also define human freedom in terms of the divine institutions and relationship to God, authority, and sin.
    **15** While some sins are mentioned in the Ten Commandments, its purpose is not to define sin.
    **16** Human freedom has something which is the guardian of freedom: Authority.
    **17** Codex Two is the ordinances, EXO 25:1-31:18, or the spiritual code.
    This emphasizes the fact that believers are designed to function under both the laws of divine establishment as well as Bible doctrine in the soul.
    **18** As the marriage counselor, codex two points out the solution to the first marriage to the old sin nature as being salvation.
    **19** The ordinances are the spiritual heritage of Israel. They are the theological code designed to present Jesus Christ as the only Savior.
    **20** The structure of the tabernacle, Exo 25-27,
    the delineation of the Holy Days, LEV 23:10ff,
    the way of life for the Levitical priesthood, Exo 28-29,
    and the significance of the Levitical offerings, Lev 1-3.
    **21** Codex Three is the judgments, the establishment code, or the national heritage of Israel. Codex Number 3 included every principle related to the function of a client nation to God which includes an elaboration of freedom and authority, privacy, rights, property, privileges, marriage, military policy, taxation, diet, health, sanitation, quarantine, criminal law, trial, punishment, and laws of evidence, EXO 21:1-23:9.
    **22** It also included the function of free enterprise and profit motivation, but rejected all forms of socialism and the welfare state. It rejected civil disobedience, violence, and revolution. The laws of divine establishment are for believer and unbeliever alike.
    **23** Morality mandated by the Mosaic law was for both believers and unbelievers; it was not the means of spirituality. Spirituality is infinitely greater than morality.
    **24** Morality is produced by human self-determination and is good.
    Spirituality is produced by God the Holy Spirit and is infinitely greater than good.
    **25** Point 2. Who are the recipients of the Mosaic Law?
    The Mosaic Law was given to Israel as the first client nation to God in BC 1440, EXO 19:3;
    LEV 26:46; ROM 3:19; ROM 9:4.
    **26** EXO 19:3 And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the sons of Israel:”
    ROM 9:4 who are Israelites, to whom is the adoption, and the Shekinah glory, and the covenants, and the deposit of the law,
    **27** The Mosaic Law was never given to Gentiles, DEU 4:8; ROM 2:12-14, because Israel was the client nation. The Mosaic Law was never given to the Church, ACT 15:5,24; ROM 6:14; GAL 2:19.
    **28** ROM 6:14 for sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
    **29** Codex Three is the exception, since it belongs to the entire world and teaches how a nation can prosper

  • THE NEW COVENANT WITH ISRAEL

    The New Covenant with Israel.

    Wednesday, March 26, 2008

    a. The Abrahamic covenant emphasizes the Jewish race.
    b. The Palestinian covenant emphasizes the land for Israel.
    c) The Davidic covenant emphasizes the promised seed.

    The New Covenant guarantees Israel
    a converted heart
    as the foundation
    of all her blessings.

    The New Covenant promised to Israel is stated in JER 31:31-34.

    These are provisions for Israel, who are the people of the New Covenant who have believed in Christ alone, by faith alone.

    1) It is an unconditional-grace covenant resting on the five "I will’s" of God.

    In EZE 16:1-7, God affirms His love for Israel in her infant stage.
    In EZE 16:8-14, God reminds Israel that she was chosen and related to Jehovah by marriage, but in EZE 16:15, she played the harlot.

    Their beauty went to their head and they became a common whore, grabbing anyone or anything coming down the street and taking them into their bed or their place of intimacy.

    Therefore, the punishment of dispersion was dealt to Israel, in EZE 16:35-52. However, this is not the final setting of Israel since there will be restoration, EZE 16:53-63. The restoration is based on the promise, EZE 16:60-62.

    ROM 2:4 Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

    One of those incredible gifts is the insight into our sorrows and difficulties and trials and how all divine discipline is administered in grace.

    1.) The New Covenant is an unconditional-grace covenant resting on the five "I will’s" of God.
    2. The New Covenant is an everlasting covenant or is eternal. This is closely related to the fact that it is unconditional and made in grace, ISA 61:8; EZE 37:26; JER 31:35-37.

    EZE 37:26 “And I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant with them. And I will place them and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in their midst forever.”

    3. The New Covenant also promises the impartation of a renewed mind and heart which may be called regeneration, JER 31:33; ISA 59:21.

    4. The New Covenant provides for restoration to the favor and blessing of God, HOS 2:19-20;
    ISA 61:9.

    5. Forgiveness of sin is also included in the covenant, JER 31:32.
    6. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is also included in the New Covenant. Not permanent indwelling, like the Church-age believer, who has God the Father, Son and H.S. within, but the indwelling of the H.S. to teach the believer, JER 31:33-34; EZE 36:27.

    7. There will be materialistic blessings for Israel in the land according to the provisions of the New Covenant,JER 32:41; ISA 61:8; EZE 34:25-27.

    8. The sanctuary will be rebuilt in Jerusalem, EZE 37:26-27.
    9. War shall cease and peace shall reign according to HOS 2:18.
    The fact that this is also a definite characteristic of the Millennium, ISA 2:4.

    10. The blood of TLJC is the foundation of all the blessings of the New Covenant, ZEC 9:11.

    ZEC 9:11 As for you also, because of the blood of {My} covenant with you, I have set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.

    The New Covenant, then, was made with the Jewish people. Confirmation of this covenant is given in the statement in ISA 61:8-9, where it is called everlasting, and again in EZE 37:21-28.

    a) Israel is to be re-gathered.
    b) Israel is to be one nation ruled by one king.
    c) Israel is no longer to be idolatrous but to be cleansed and forgiven.

    d) Israel is to dwell forever in the land after the re-gathering.
    e) The covenant of peace is to be “everlasting”.
    f) God’s tabernacle is to be with them, i.e. He will be present with them in a visible way.
    g) Israel is to be known among the Gentiles as a nation blessed of God.

    This covenant is a gracious covenant that depends entirely upon the five “I wills” of God for its fulfillment inJER 31:31-34.

    This covenant amplifies the third great area of the original Abrahamic covenant i.e., the area of blessing.

    The blessing is emphasized in the New Covenant.

    Covenant theologians and the Amillennial view teach that the reference to the New Covenant in the N.T. is proof that the church is the New Israel.

    This covenant was made with Israel, the physical seed of Abraham according to the flesh, and with them alone:
    JER 31:31, ISA 59:20-21,
    JER 32:37-40, JER 50:4-5,
    EZE 16:60-63, EZE 34:25-26,
    EZE 37:21-28.

    The scripture clearly teaches that the Mosaic covenant or the Law was made with the nation Israel only, ROM 2:14, GAL 3:24-25, LEV 26:46, DEU 4:8.

    The Law pertains to Israel only, and since this old covenant was made with Israel, the new covenant is made with the same people,
    JER 31:35-37!

    The sequence of events set up by the prophet Jeremiah in JER 32:37-41 is that Israel will first be re-gathered and restored to the land, and then will experience the blessings of the New Covenant in the land.

    1) The re-gathering of Israel
    2) Their spiritual rebirth
    3) The return of Christ, ROM 11:26-27.

    This New Covenant will be realized in the Millennial age,
    JER 31:34; EZE 32:25; ISA 11:6-9.

    They are to be fulfilled because of the faithfulness of the One making the covenants, not the ones to whom the covenant is made!

    1) A nation forever
    2) A land forever
    3) A king forever
    4) A throne forever
    5) A kingdom forever
    6) A new covenant
    7) Abiding blessings.

  • DAVIDIC COVENANT: THE CONIAH CURSE (2)

    Davidic Covenant: The Coniah curse - part 2.

    Friday, March 21, 2008

    The holocaust that would come to them in BC 586, administered by Nebuchadnezzar.

    A woman in labor who never delivers the child.

    The only way the Jew can deliver the child and fulfill the correct side of the double entendre or pun is to personally believe in TLJC as Savior.

    A double entendre is a figure of speech similar to the pun, in which a spoken phrase can be understood in either of two ways.

    Jehoiakim, and then his son Coniah, called Jeconiah, called Jehoiachin, and the Lord said Coniah will never have a son that will rule in fulfillment of the Davidic dynasty’s great covenant, the Davidic covenant.

    Shealtiel would a adopt son called Zerubbabel, HAG 2:3.

    Zerubbabel would go back, as a great leader, but he would never sit on David’s throne.

    Shealtiel was the son of Neri and a descendant of Nathan the son of David.

    Since Zerubbabel’s true line comes down from Nathan, Zerubbabel would have a son who would reign forever, and that son would be the product of the virgin Mary, our Lord Jesus Christ.

    The line of Coniah, Shealtiel and before him Jehoiakim - they are cut off!
    They are under the 3-generation curse.

    Joseph is descended from Coniah, Shealtiel, and so on, but Joseph is not the real father.

    He is in the legal line only, which started with this curse, and the bloodline switched from Zerubbabel over to Nathan’s side. Mary is the bloodline, and therefore in Luke, because she is the bloodline, the bloodline goes all the way back to Adam.

    I will pull you off
    refers to such passages as
    MAT 1:12, the legal line

    His real father was Pedaiah (1CH 3:19), his grandfather was Neri, (LUK 3:27).

    Isaac had a legal line in Esau - they became the Edomites - but the bloodline for Israel was Jacob. Jacob by 4 women had 12 sons, and the bloodline goes through the 12 sons.

    Esau was the eldest and through primogeniture, (the state of being the first-born), the bloodline should have gone down through Esau but another so-called coincidence, took place.

    Esau was an immoral or godless person who sold his own birthright for a single meal (HEB 12:16).

    Jacob, because he accepted Christ as Savior, became the bloodline.

    The bloodline is transferred to Zerubbabel who is the son of Nathan, and he started out being the legal line because Nathan is never on the throne.

    Since Zerubbabel’s true line comes down from Nathan, Zerubbabel would have a son who would reign forever, and that son would be the product of the virgin Mary, our Lord Jesus Christ.
    The line of Coniah, Shealtiel and before him Jehoiakim - they are cut off!
    They are under the 3-generation curse.
    Joseph is descended from Coniah, Shealtiel, and so on, but Joseph is not the real father.
    He is in the legal line only, which started with this curse, and the bloodline switched from Zerubbabel over to Nathan’s side. Mary is the bloodline, and therefore in Luke, because she is the bloodline, the bloodline goes all the way back to Adam.
    I will pull you off
    refers to such passages as
    MAT 1:12, the legal line
    His real father was Pedaiah (1CH 3:19), his grandfather was Neri, (LUK 3:27).
    Isaac had a legal line in Esau - they became the Edomites - but the bloodline for Israel was Jacob. Jacob by 4 women had 12 sons, and the bloodline goes through the 12 sons.
    Esau was the eldest and through primogeniture, (the state of being the first-born), the bloodline should have gone down through Esau but another so-called coincidence, took place.
    Esau was an immoral or godless person who sold his own birthright for a single meal (HEB 12:16).
    Jacob, because he accepted Christ as Savior, became the bloodline.
    The bloodline is transferred to Zerubbabel who is the son of Nathan, and he started out being the legal line because Nathan is never on the throne.

  • DAVIDIC COVENANT: THE CONIAH CURSE (1)

    Davidic Covenant: The Coniah curse.

    Thursday, March 20, 2008

    GEN 3:15 “And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.”

    The Davidic Covenant says that the seed of the woman, the humanity of Christ, will descend from the tribe of Judah through the family of David, 2SA 7:8-17; PSA 89:20-37.

    The two lines of our Lord originated from David and Bathsheba. Their son Solomon’s line, given in Matthew, ends with Joseph, the legal but not real father of our Lord’s humanity.

    This is another reason for the virgin birth. Solomon’s line had a curse upon it because of one of His descendants named Jeconiah, also called Jehoiachin and then eventually called Coniah.

    His kingship lasted for only 3 months and 10 days before he surrendered to Nebuchadnezzar, who took him to Babylon and imprisoned him for 36 years when he was finally released.

    The Coniah curse is when our Lord said Coniah will never ever have a son that will rule in fulfillment of the Davidic dynasty’s great covenant, the Davidic covenant.

    This is why we have two lineages in the Gospels. Nathan’s line, found in Luke, ends with Mary, the source of the true humanity of Christ. Solomon’s line, given in Matthew, ends with Joseph, the legal but not real father of our Lord’s humanity.

    Joseph is the surrogate or representative, but not the real father of the humanity of
    Jesus Christ.

    Satan thought he had defeated God by perverting the line of David, but Satan had no idea how the virgin birth would fit into the plan of God magnificently and bring glory to God.

    As JER 49:16 and OBA 1:3 both say, "The arrogance of your heart has deceived you,"

    JER 50:32 The arrogant one will stumble and fall with no one to raise him up;

    Coniah was 18 when he succeeded his father, and was king of Judah for three months and ten days; the 20th king from David.

    Judah was invaded and judged for their NVTD for three or four years by the Chaldaean, the Ammonites, and the Moabite armies sent by Nebuchadnezzar (as Jehovah’s executioner of judgment) in consequence of Jehoiakim’s, Coniah’s father, for his rebellion toward God.

    If there is no response to the first four cycles of discipline, God eventually removes that client nation from history.

    Negative volition, apostasy, and passive arrogance or indifference creates the vacuum which attracts the persecution of active arrogance and historical disaster.

    Evil demands evil and cruelty demands cruelty, and therefore arrogance demands the function of active arrogance against it.

    The ten horns and the beast represent political and historical degeneracy in the Tribulation period.

    The harlot or the prostitute represents religious degeneracy.

    If a client nation reaches the point of religious degeneracy, then some other nation will wipe it out.

    Political degeneracy persecutes and destroys religious degeneracy.

    However, when divine judgment falls on a nation, the pivot is secure.

    Therefore, while the pivot is secure, the spin-off of apostate believers is always destroyed by historical catastrophe.

    If the pivot is too small and the spin-off is too large, then the nation is destroyed.

    While the nation is destroyed, the pivot is preserved through the disaster, ISA 28:5-6.

    ISA 28:5 In that day [the day of divine judgment] the Lord of hosts will become a beautiful crown and a glorious diadem to the remnant of his people;

    ISA 28:6 A spirit of justice for him who executes justice [the believer who is a part of the pivot], a strength to those who repel the onslaught at the gate.

    The book of Lamentations was written by a believer who was a part of the pivot in Israel, and who observed as his people were being taken into slavery.

    By destroying the great spin-off of apostates, the Lord protects future generations of history from evil, apostasy, and tyranny.

    Historical crisis and disaster is the means of cleansing a nation from the spin-off of evil.

    The divine destruction of the spin-off is therefore comparable to a national rebound.

    If large enough, the pivot is the means of delivering a nation under discipline, either from or through the historical disaster.

    The example is Judah in 701 BC during the Sennacherib invasion; the consistent ministry of Isaiah turned the tide in Judah.

    ISA 28:9-10 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

    When all the establishment means of deliverance fail, response to Bible teaching is the last hope.

    Josiah was king; his second son, Jehoiakim, was made what they called a vassal to Nebuchadnezzar after the fourth cycle of discipline at the battle of Carchemish.

    In JER 36:29-31,
    his death was prophesied.

    His son was Coniah, who in 597 BC ruled for three months and ten days. He was made a prisoner for thirty-six years.

    This curse was fulfilled with the virgin birth, when Joseph (from Solomon and Coniah’s line) became the legal but not the real father.

    That’s another reason Matthew traces Solomon’s line of the genealogy of Christ through Joseph, and Luke traces Nathan’s line of genealogy of Christ through Mary, 1CH 3:5 cf LUK 3:23-38.

    God had to devise a plan by which He would be the legal heir of the throne, but He would not be in the line of David descending through Jeconiah or Coniah.

  • THE DAVIDIC COVENANT: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ABRAHAM, DAVID AND THE BELIEVER IN THE CHURCH-AGE

    The Davidic Covenant: The relationship between Abraham, David and the believer in the Church-age.

    Wednesday, March 19, 2008

    The third of Israel’s great unconditional or unilateral covenants is known as the Davidic covenant,
    which emphasizes the seed for client nation Israel.

    a) The Jewish race
    - Abrahamic covenant
    b) The land for Israel
    - Palestinian covenant
    c) The promised seed for client nation Israel
    - Davidic covenant.

    The Davidic Covenant refers to God’s promises to David through Nathan the prophet, 2Sa 7,
    1CH 17:11-14, 2CH 6:16.

    TLJC would come from the lineage of David and the tribe of Judah and would establish a kingdom that would endure forever.

    1. God reaffirms the promise of the land that He made in the first two covenants with Israel (The Abrahamic and Mosaic Covenants),
    2SA 7:10.

    2. God promises that David’s descendant or "seed" will succeed Him as king of Israel, and that David’s throne will be established forever.

    The provisions of the covenant
    are summarized in 2SA 7:16.

    The covenant is summarized by the words:
    "house," promising a dynasty in the lineage of David;
    "kingdom," referring to a people who are governed by a king;



    "throne," emphasizing the authority of the king’s rule;
    and "forever," emphasizing the eternal and unconditional nature of this promise to David and Israel.

    In spite of all the demonic and religious attacks made upon God’s people Israel, they will still prevail.

    You are a part of the Davidic dynasty because through faith alone in Christ alone, you are a spiritual child of Abraham.

    Abraham was
    a non-Jew or a Gentile
    when he was saved.

    People were saved hundreds of years before the Mosaic Law or the Ten commandments were given.



    Therefore, following the Mosaic Law or the Ten commandments cannot save you...as many teach.

    "All nations will be blessed in you."

    DEU 27:26 Utterly cursed is every person who fails to carry out every detail written in the Book of the law.

    The person who lives in right relationship with God does it by embracing what God arranges for him, such as the unconditional or unilateral covenants.

    HAB 2:4 The person who believes God, is set right by God--and that’s the real life.

    But the person in right standing before God through loyalty and steadfastness and believing, he is fully alive, really alive,
    JOH 10:10.

    DEU 21:22 And if a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree, his corpse shall not hang all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him on the same day (for he who is hanged is accursed of God),

    We are all able to receive God’s life, His Spirit, in and with us by believing--just the way Abraham received it.

    It does not say "to descendants," referring to everybody in general, but "to your descendant" (the noun, note, is singular), referring to Christ.

    It involved dressing you in an adult faith wardrobe--the life of Christ, the fulfillment of God’s original promise and the fulfillment of the Davidic covenant referring to David’s descendant, TLJC.

    Since you are Christ’s family, and have a part in the Davidic covenant then you are one and a part of Abraham’s famous "descendant," heirs according to the covenant promises.

    John Calvin said,
    "A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God’s truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.

    If I declare with loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of God’s truth except for that one little bit which the world and the devil are at the moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ no matter how boldly I may be professing Christ. For the soldier to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that single point."
