Silliness.You are quite correct.
Words are not as rigid as we would like them to be. They are rarely unconditional.
Example:
John 19:30 "So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit."
If someone would insist that "It is finished" is unconditional then the need for Jesus to be raised from the dead would not be needed.
There is a tacit understanding in all language, those who push a certain narrative will ignore this.
Well, just so you know negative teasing is textbook passive-aggressive.
You are quite correct.

.
Because you need that verse to be unconditional.Well, this covenant is. The Bible says so.
Because you need that verse to be unconditional.
Where in the verbiage is it labeled as unconditional?Why would I NEED it to be unconditional? lol It's what the Bible says.
And that's why it is silly, because it is tacit.Silliness.
Everyone understands that Jesus saying "It is finished" is dealing with paying our sin debt.
THAT, is what is finished. The debt. His Resurrection tells us the payment is accepted, and that all those born again in Him will be raised to life.
Where in the verbiage is it labeled as unconditional?
The promises given to Judah were conditional, simply read Deuteronomy 28:1-14.
I will ask again.Abrahamic Covenant was unconditional. Others were conditional, but not that one.
Yes, it was conditional. And to whom? The nation of Israel. Right?Where in the verbiage is it labeled as unconditional?
The promises given to Judah were conditional, simply read Deuteronomy 28:1-14.
And this gets to the heart of the issue: "And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven."
This was spoken to Jews, who called Abraham their father... as if association with Abraham meant anything of lasting value. No, all men, with the mind of Christ, were to conclude that their origin is from God. And, because of that, their standard of life, belief, and culture was to be the same as God's: in image and likeness.
lol the guy is trying to raise $2 million for that, So what would having a faked, staged trial accomplish? My guess is nothing and he's just trying to bilk gullible Christians out of money
It is finished means more than just the debt being paid, although thats the big one. His time on earth was finished, the curtain torn finished the power of the priests, sacrifices were finished as well, which ties to the priests.Silliness.

Not sure about your comment but here is the verse:Yes, it was conditional. And to whom? The nation of Israel. Right?
Thats why it is called the OT.
We are living according the NT. Right?
And what is the Gospel? Why it is called gospel? Because of the message: who believes in Jesus Christ has eternal life! !
You should note the context and the adressat!Not sure about your comment but here is the verse:
Deuteronomy 28:1-14 NIV
Blessings for Obedience
28 If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. 2 All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God:
3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
4 The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
5 Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.
6 You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
7 The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
8 The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.
9 The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in obedience to him. 10 Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you. 11 The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.
12 The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. 13 The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. 14 Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods
Regardless of who, what, when or where the blessings are conditional on the "ifs".
Context and who is being addressed does not alter the "if" condition.You should note the context and the adressat!
