God certainly speaks to mankind through natural revelation. In other words, God speaks by what he has made. However, natural revelation, while sufficient to condemn mankind, is still missing a few things.

“Tell us what is to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods; do good, or do harm, that we may be dismayed and terrified.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭41:23‬ ‭ESV‬‬

This brief episode explains exactly why so many Christians don’t feel forgiven.

The Great Commission requires that we preach both Law and Gospel, because Christ explicitly told us to teach others to obey ALL of his commands. And as we do, something begins to change.

There is nothing morally superior/inferior to specific ETHNICITIES, and yet, not all CULTURES are morally equal.

“I’m not sure whether my three little girls are regenerate. Regardless of whether or not they are regenerate, I will raise them as ‘pre-Christians,’ not pagan enemies of God. Even as a Baptist, I fully believe that when it comes to the salvation of my children, the question is merely a matter of WHEN God will choose to save them, not IF God will choose to save them.” -Pastor Joel Webbon

The problem with the Old Covenant was not that God gave bad commands, but that the people had bad hearts. However, under the New Covenant, God promises to give all his New Covenant people new hearts.

Under the New Covenant, the will of God is written not just on tablets of stone, but on the minds and hearts of all God's people. God not only replaces shadows with substance, but he also takes that substance and places it within his people; God writes it on our hearts. In other words, God does not merely lay his gift of salvation down at our feet for us to pick up in our own strength. Rather, God picks it up for us and ensures we never lose it.

In this short video, Pastor Joel Webbon provides a brief overview of each of the covenants: 1) Covenant of Redemption, 2) Adamic Covenant, 3) Noahic Covenant, 4) Abrahamic Covenant, 5) Mosaic Covenant, 6) Davidic Covenant, and 7) New Covenant.

The goal of evangelism is to get people to KNOW Jesus, God will determine if they LOVE Jesus.
