Old Covenant/New Covenant


There has been some discussion of late about Old Covenant/New Covenant. Are we supposed to keep all the commands of the Old Covenant etc?


We must understand that in the Old Testament God allowed it to be written from 2 perspectives:


1. He allowed His Will to be  written down.
2. He also allowed some to record their own heart’s desires.


Let me give you some examples.


Here are some requests to the Lord by the writer of Psalms.


1. (Psa 119:133)  Order my steps in your word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.


2.(Psa 119:134)  Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep your precepts.


3.(Psa 119:135)  Make your face to shine upon your servant; and teach me your statutes.


New Covenant/Finished Work says:


1. (Psa 37:23)  The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delightes in his way.


2.(Col 1:13)  Who has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:


3. (2Ti 2:15)  Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
