When Adam named the animals, he created new words...thus, new language.
There is no difference between being saved and salvation. And the New Covenant is what is in place right now. The blood of Christ has ratified that covenant. Now God gives the gift of the Holy Spirit to those who repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.
I don't find your words in scripture. I have read the Bible. I believe that there is a new covenant for the house of Israel. I am a Gentile. I believe that I am saved by the blood of Jesus. He died for me.
Why would you find my words in Scripture? I am interpreting Scripture. But if you wish to exclude yourself from the New Covenant you might as well exclude yourself from Christ. Looks like you have a superficial understanding about these things. Take some time to properly study the New Testament.
It's not in scripture. How do you cook a meal or read or drive? These things aren't in the Bible?
In reading Jeremiah 31:31-33 I learn that there is to be a new covenant with the house of Israel. I don't think that that relates to me as a Gentile. I do not belong to Israel. I was born in Washington State.
2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
It depends on what you are referring to.
If you are referring to Genesis through Revelation it is the Bible. The word Bible means book.
“Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.”
Ezekiel 18:4 KJV
we need salvation from death because all of us at some point have sinned and are under that word of judgement tbat whoever sins must die even as was Adam god told him “ thou shalt not “ or you will surely die “ every human that sins is sentenced to death as was Adam and all of us have sinned
“for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 3:23 KJV
Knowing that we are being saved from death for our sins this makes more sense huh ?
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV
and then Sections of scripture like this also begin to really make sense even more
“But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”
Hebrews 2:9-10, 14-15
man was never meant to die by Gods Will he told them not to eat the fruit and die that was his Will , and through Christ his Will of life is being accomplished through his death and resurrection
I am sure that you can change your mind about these things. I do believe that Jesus died for me. That is, Jesus died for me personally. Just as Jesus died for you personally if you believe.
