Jews Will Receive The New Covenant

Seasons must come and go. They were established by the Lord Jesus. All things were created by Him.

People must adapt to the changing seasons or suffer, and even die.

There are many reasons why people are averse to changes. They resist changes that are beneficial to them, without good reason. Many times it is because they think that the changes are not for better.

The case of the Israelites wandering in the wilderness for forty years gives light to some of the consequences of resisting changes. Such resistances are rebellions. They are rebellions against God.

When God commands us to change we should give ourselves to His commands whole-heartedly or suffer the consequences. Jesus was not joking when He said, "repent ye, and believe the gospel" (Mark 1:15). The command is not just to a few people but to everyone. The next command, to be baptized, (Matt. 28:19) is not a joke. God means business.

I hope God's appointed ministers of the gospel and the entire Church are not found to be joking when they preach to others "this Gospel". Those who resist the appointed ministers of God and others in God's Church, who are sent to them with "this gospel", are in rebellion. They shall not escape the judgement of God in the appointed time. The dust of the feet of those who are sent to warn them shall be a witness against them.

One reason why most Jews are resisting "this Gospel" is because a veil is covering their hearts. That veil goes along with the Old Covenant. That covenant, even though it had some measures of glory (2 Corinthians 3), pales in comparison to the New Covenant in Jesus. The Old has been abolished. People are still resisting to change and receive the New Covenant even thoug the veil is not on their hearts as it is on the majority of Jews. Their blindness stems from many other sources.

The time is getting closer to the turning of the majority of Jews to the greater glory of the New Covenant in Christ Jesus. As surely as the seasons bring changes so God has appointed a season for the turning of many Jews to the New Covenant in His Son, Jesus. The veil shall be removed from their hearts and they shall be able to see beyond Moses and the Old Covenant. Yes, the time is close. They shall also cry when He shall be revealed in great glory with His Church and angels. God HAS NOT ABOLISHED ISRAEL, ONLY THAT OLD COVENANT WHICH WORKED DEATH AND BONDAGE. Those who will attempt to ABOLISH ISRAEL will become nothing. Yes, the time is coming when their flesh shall melt like wax while they surround Jerusalem to destroy the Jews in it.

Hear, O Lord. Hear the threats of the rebellious against your inheritance. See the plight of Jacob and make haste to deliver him. The hungry lions are lurking, ready to strike. Who will see us they think. Who will prevent us they boast. Fill them, O Lord. Give them to eat their just rewards. Spare them not; they have exalted themselves above you. Bring them low. Make them as the dunghill.

Zion is the name you call your choice land: your city Jerusalem. Zion, though now bound, and with many more children than Zion above, shall be set free. You have decreed it Lord. Who shall prevent you? Who shall delay you?

Be warned now you rebellious and turn to the Lord Jesus before it is too late.

Abdool N.
