Old vs. New.2

Old Covenant: God chose one man Abram and through him came many descendants who made up one nation; Israel. God directed and commanded Israel on many occasions to war against other nations and kill without mercy.

We are no longer under the Old Covenant.

New Covenant: God chose one man Jesus and through Him came many descendants who make up one Church. God no longer directs and commands his Church to war or kill anyone.

Loving God means keeping his commandments (love one another), and really, that isn’t difficult. For every child of God defeats this evil world by trusting Christ to give victory. And the ones who win this battle against the world are the ones who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.”
~ The Apostle John ~

President Bush is not following the words of the Apostle in his foreign policy; he unfortunately is following after on Old Covenant; a way which was replaced the the New Covenant.

Old vs. New.1


The New Covenant promises persecution for those who follow after Jesus. The Old Covenant promises prosperity for those who follow the Ten Commandments.

Which of these two have your heard preached most recently?
