I agree.

The New Covenant is the [Renewed] Abrahamic Covenant, which Jesus made with Abraham as an everlasting Covenant. If the New [Renewed] Covenant is not better, and established on better promises than the law of Moses, then what Covenant is? 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both...

Yes the New [renewed] Covenant is better with better promises. This does not change the fact that the New Covenant is the renewed Abrahamic Covenant, by which we [Gentiles] are grafted into the natural olive tree, which is the Israel of God. JPT

Of course Paul taught the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that is the central part of our faith. However the Gospel of Jesus Christ, that He preached and His Apostles were sent to preach is - Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. The way we obey the Gospel command repent, is to confess...

The lost sheep did belong to the shepherd, then became lost, no longer belonging to the shepherd until he returns in repentance. There is no scripture in the bible that refers to the lost as someone who never believed. To be lost, a person must first belong to God. A person can not loose...

The believer must confess their sins to God, as He is the One forgiving the sins. JPT

That's not what is being taught by Jesus at all. “Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? And when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Rejoice with me...

Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38-39 JPT

This is the Gospel that Jesus Christ preached. From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 4:17 This is the Gospel that Jesus sent His apostles to preach - And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by...

What do you want me to acknowledge about Hebrews 11:39-40? By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days. By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace. And what more shall I say? For...

Unfortunately there are many that fit this description. JPT

What is your point? I'll ask you the question again. Can you honestly say that a person who is lost, is saved? Please answer the question. JPT

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 JPT

Please post a scripture that says "clearly" God saves only the elect. Here is what my Bible says - For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Your "gospel", which is not the Gospel...

Can you "honestly" say that the lost are saved? JPT

That is what Paul taught them. If that were the Gospel then why did you leave out all of what Paul said. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day...

In our day and time just like the first century, if one of His sheep wander from Him and become lost, they are as sinners in need of repentance. Found = Reconciled to God: Justified - Declared to be right with God. Lost = Seperated from God. Unjust. Unrighteous. A Sinner in need of...

The way we turn to God, in which we turn away from Satan as our lord is to confess Jesus as Lord. This is the action of faith by which we are saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:10 with the mouth...

Sorry but your commentary you posted will never change the truth of scripture. Abraham was in covenant with Christ, and had His Spirit in him. JPT

Reconciliation with God is just that: Being reconciled to God. No matter where it is taught in the scriptures, the way to be reconciled to God is to obey Him and repent. The only way a person is reconciled to God is to turn to Him or return to Him: Repent. JPT
