Epiicenter Conference
SHORT Q&A
Differences in theology caused by misunderstanding God's Nature?
IF we ALL truly GOT God's Full faithfulness, both to Himself, and BOTH to His people the JEWS and His CHURCH, the foolish debates would STOP! I seriously believe that. Take ONLY Hebrews 6:13-20 where it not only reiterates God's faithfulness to Abraham and the OATH God swore to Abraham (thus re-confirming the Abrahamic Covenant by inference and hermeneutics, God's eternal faithfulness to Himself and thus to ALL His promises is made in verse 17, " So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of THE PROMISE (Abrahamic Covenant), the UNCHANGEABLE character of His purpose, He guaranteed it with an oath, so that by two UNCHANGEABLE things, in which it is IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us (our salvation promises). We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor (that God, and therefore Jesus, cannot lie, being one and the same), of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain (as Jesus did, tearing it down forever by His sacrificial death as our High Priest),where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf having become a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.(Thus destroying forever our need for "priests", etc. to act on our behalf.
So to finish, saying that God's promise to the Jews is now null and void is badly mistaken, a mis-interpretation not only of God's high and holy character (though not intentional), and a HUGE mis-interpretation of God's Word. Again, if the literal sense makes plain sense, seek no other sense, so as not to end up with nonsense! Sounds easy to me! So why don't we all agree and quit confusing SO MANY young believers hmmm? :)
