You do not know what the word fulfilled means?
LOL. Of course I know what it means. I'm asking YOU what you believe the word means in relation to the new covenant.
So when God says all it does not mean all to you. WOW! Maybe then not all who are saved are saved. But what you say is not what God inspired!
Do you actually read what I say or just skim over it? I did not say "when God says all it does not mean all". I'm saying there are times when it says that, but doesn't mean literally all. Unless you think the following is talking about God pouring out His Spirit on literally all people?
Acts 2:15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is
only the third hour of the day. 16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That
I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.
Are you going to claim that this is talking about God pouring out His Spirit on literally all flesh/people? If all means all, I guess that's what it must be saying, right? Or do we need to look at the context to see who "all flesh" are referring to exactly?
Now you need to know Greek and how all is used. sometimes it means every single person, and sometimes it means all of a particular group like here.
First, you falsely accuse me of saying that when God says all it doesn't mean all. Then you proceed to agree with me that the meaning of the word all depends on the context. Wow. What is wrong with you? That's what I'm saying as well. Except I don't take Jeremiah 31:31-34 to be talking about literally all people of the houses of Israel and Judah, but rather all believers (so, unbelievers are not included). Just like how God pouring out His Spirit on all people doesn't mean literally all people, but all believers.
but you need to show thatthe Jeremiah covenant when God says the house of Israel and Judah and that ALLshall know me from the least to the greatest shall know me does not mean all of Judah and all of Israel and all from the least to the greatest.
Just read Hebrews 8-10 if you want to understand the new covenant. I can't explain it any better than that. So, will you do that or are you going to continue to insist on having your own understanding of it that doesn't match what is described in Hebrews 8-10?
So show that in the New covenant and you win! The New covenant is declared in Jer. 31 and most of it repeated in Hebrews ( abook addressed to Jews) so show that the new Covenant as written is also for gentiles and you win.
UNBELIEVABLE! How can you think that the new covenant is not also for Gentiles?!!! Do you not understand that the new covenant is about Jesus making a sacrifice "once for ALL" in order to provide atonement for sins? How else can we receive the forgiveness of sins except through the blood sacrifice of Christ on the cross that established the new covenant?!!! Do you not accept what scripture teaches about Gentile believers being fellow citizens and fellow heirs of God's promises (Ephesians 2:11-3:6)? Do you accept anything that is taught in the New Testament? Do you ever read the New Testament?
You are not only failing Christianity 101 here, but you are getting 0% in the class. This is truly astounding that any Christian could possibly be this ignorant about a fundamental part of Christianity like the new covenant.
Wellyou rclass of allegorical reinterpretation, yes I fail. But I will let my Savior judge. You have failed to provide empirical biblical evidence to cause me to change my mind.
100% but that does not make us Jews or some kind of "Spiritual Israel".. I t makes us fellow heirs and partakers, not taker overs.
If we are fellow heirs and paratkers, then why do you try to create separation between Jew and Gentile believers? We are united as one, but your doctrine keeps us divided.
100%.l but who is the Book of Hebrews written to? Jewish believers or the church in general?
What does that matter? Nowhere in it does it say that the new covenant only applies to Jews. How could that be, knowing that Christ shed His blood not just for Jews, but for Gentiles as well. The new covenant is all about the shed blood of Jesus. That is what put it into effect. He shed His blood for the sins of the Gentiles, too, right? So, how else can we be saved and receive the forgiveness of sins except under the new covenant established by the blood of Christ?
Matthew 26:27 Then He took the cup, and after He gave thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you. 28 For
this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Are you trying to say that Jesus was only talking here about His blood of the new covenant being shed for Jews so that they could have the remission of their sins?
I also believe that the blood of Jesus paid for the covenant and His death and resurresction established the foundation for the covenant to be fulfilled.
Did Jesus pay the price only for Jews or for Gentiles, also?
But as long as you believe that what Jeremiah wrote is not what is meant- we will always have a massive disagreement.
This kind of comment is utterly ridiculous. What is meant is explained to us in scripture like Hebrews 8-10. But, you don't want to accept the meaning of the new covenant as scripture explains it.
I believe that teh Covenant is true as written and understood for centuries.
No, you don't, because your understanding of it doesn't line up with what is written about it in Hebrews 8-10. It is made clear that the new covenant is all about Christ's sacrifice "one for all" and that it relates to the forgiveness of sins for anyone who trusts in Him, including Gentile believers. But, you make it out to be something besides that and you make it as something that is only for Jews.
Show me where you have the authority to allegfoize the many passages you have so far and how do you determine.
Why should I believe your "opinion" of what is written in stead of what is actually written?
You should believe what is written about the new covenant in Hebrews 8-10 and other parts of scripture, but you don't. You only look at the text of Jeremiah 31 itself and don't allow other scripture to help you understand what it means. That's on you. Entirely your fault. You don't have to believe what I'm saying. You can read Hebrews 8-10 and other scriptures that describe the new covenant for yourself, but it seems that you're not interested in doing that and would rather cling to your unbiblical understanding of the new covenant.
