What you are saying is that God can promise something and then not do it.
Conditional promises do not have to be kept when the conditions are not met.

So, God did break the covenant as I have proven using God saying it himself.

The old covenant is gone, replaced by a new one built upon better promises.

The old covenant wasn't a set of conditional promises. It was a contract with very real stipulations and very real blessings or consequences for observance or failure to live up to the terms of the covenant. Had Israel lived up to the covenant, it would have led to great blessings. They failed, and it led to their destruction.
What did you expect the owner of the vineyard to do when He returned?

It was and when Israel broke the covenant, the promises no longer had to be fulfilled. Instead, a new covenant and new promises were made.

The old covenant was not fully over until the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple.
There existed an intercovenantal period in the 1st century in which the new covenant is emerging and the old covenant is waning.
Nope.
Jesus said " The law and the prophets were until john "
When John Baptized Jesus, the priesthood changed because john was a levite of the levitical priesthood, and Jesus was of Judah.

Has anybody done any preparation?? do you think it's necessary??
I have thought about it a hell of a lot. and I have done some preparation for the war. You know, after the big war things get expensive. The supermarket shelves become empty because people start to panic. So I've done some preparation for that. Um, the power going off. I've done some preparation for that. But nothing regarding the tribulation. The last three and a half years. But I'm going to do something.

What about anybody else? have they thought about it, or done something? love to know.
Matt 25.
Some are ready and some are not.
If you want to plan on being here during the tribulation, simply do as the Foolish virgins. they end up being martyred by the Antichrist. the Bible says he kills every human being on the planet that refuses to mark.
So there is no such thing as a post tribulation rapture.

Jesus was a priest after the order of Melchizedek.

David wasn't a priest.
David is the fore runner to Jesus.
From Judah.

The priest thingy was from Levi (Aaron).
Jesus invoked David as an example of eating the shew bread, which was only lawful for the priest. Jesus was baptized into the priesthood by John at which time there was a change in the priesthood.
So there was two priestley dynamics at the time of David, and two priestly dynamics at the Time of Jesus.
Which was Jesus point.


Btw During the priesthood of Aaron, Moses could walk into the holy of holies any time he wanted to.
Which once again points to two dynamics operating side by side.

I suspect that for the first six months you will be able to use gold and silver as currency but as soon as the digital currency is mandated (and that will be soon) it will be criminal to hold onto gold and silver. The bible says people will cast it into the street. I suspect that once it is illegal they will allow people to put it out to be picked up prior to getting arrested, like an amnesty for guns or a gun buyback program.

What won't lose value is food. You can stock up all you want, but they will come in and take over your supply. According to the Bible the women that gives birth to the manchild has to flee into the wilderness. Again, this may take a year and being prepared is certainly a good idea, but that is simply a stop gap measure.

During the tribulation they will be preaching the gospel and it will be the greatest time of revival since the book of Acts. The problem is that any online Bible will be changed by Antichrist and AI. So you need a hard copy. If you buy it with a credit card they will know and they will track you down. Also if you are a member of your church's Facebook page then they have you on a list that way as well. If you do buy a bible buy a KJV as many of the other translations have been corrupted by FreeMasons.

Also the best way to prepare for the tribulation, in the event that you are to be a tribulation saint, is to set your mind to be a martyr. Trying to avoid being caught is the wrong strategy because you will be caught, dragged kicking and screaming like a coward. No, I would boldly go out preaching the gospel. What can they do to you? Being beheaded will be much better than going through 3 1/2 years of famine, pestilence and war. Also, being beheaded is a powerful testimony that could lead to others being saved.

Moses was a Levite. He was both priest and prophet.
David was of the tribe Judah which is the line of kings.
Jesus was all 3...prophet, priest and king.

Jesus' comments about the showbread concerns the Sabbath and not David directly. Jesus is teaching about what is lawful on the Sabbath. This is the context.

there will be tribulation, there will be saints from God that will go through troubles as well. Yet there at that tine and presently too, to prepare those that now see this happening of truth, the apocalypse will happen. Seeing not to take that mark of Evil. Unbelief to God Father and Son as Won (One)
Prepared for the people to be able, to do willingly go to death for Father and Son as Won for them, the same as Jesus already has done once of run all Hebrews 10:10
Being held captive to take the mark, having family captured in front of them, telling them unless you take the mark and deny Jesus and Father, we will kill your wife and children right now here and now.
How to answer that one or can we those in believe to God over it all?
Hey Honey, kids, go ahead and not take that mark either, then I will see you on the other side too, once they behead me too, Thank you Lord!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will
I, you and others too, God knows and calls and we agree with God that God knows best for us as however called to go through it as Jesus did first, thank you
"The Art off fighting without fighting" at least for me, as however, whenever Father calls thanks to Father and Son as Won in the resurrection is proof to me to stand in belief without seeing this physically. Do not have to
What on earth does not see is forever, what anyone sees is temporal The flesh is as dead, the Spirit of God lives forever and makes us alive, to stand in trust to Father and Son alone thank you
Wow

God led my fellowship to make preparations for disaster. It isn't that He wouldn't find a way to provide anyway if one can't, but it can be helpful to have some things you like around, and part of God's provision is warning.

Has anybody done any preparation??
The tribulation happened almost two thousand years ago. The tribulation, particularly the Roman siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD, fulfilled the prophecies in Revelation. Given the historical context of the book, it was written to address the persecution of early Christians under the Roman Empire.
Instead of preparing for a future tribulation, Christians should live their faith in the present. We need to focus on delivering the Gospel to society, as well as issues like poverty and injustice. This is the most effective way to prepare for the future, regardless of one's interpretation of end-times prophecies.
