Covenants tie into this how?
|
The last days begin with the outpouring of the Spirit and the new covenant.
This covenant was a promise to coincide with(during) the Law.....
17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
During this promise of everyone in future national Israel(written throughout the O.T., to be saved), the church is included in with future Israel (partial experience).
The last days will end with a future promise to national Israel being saved.....
9 And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses.
11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
This is how the covenant to future national Israel admits us into the same, but not fully revealed. promise.
