Jesus, Your Messiah And Savior

Bible teacher Graham Scroggie once said "Christ dominates the whole revelation of the Bible." This statement effectively describes the new emphasis of our messages each week - "Jesus Is Your Messiah And Savior" throughout the whole Bible.

We now are going to turn our attention to the Covenants Jehovah God established first with His Chosen People and then with all people of the world. What is a Covenant? It is a binding commitment agreed upon by God and two or more parties. A Conditional Covenant means God commits to keeping His promises but the parties involved must also keep their commitments. An Unconditional Covenant means God keeps His promises but other parties involved do not need to keep their promises.

The first Covenant established in the Bible is the Conditional Edenic Covenant. With the Edenic Covenant Adam and Eve are given permission to eat from every tree of the garden except from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the eating from which would lead to death. {Genesis 2:16-17} 

The story of Adam and Eve illustrates a Covenant broken because they disobeyed and ate the forbidden fruit. Their disobedience led to death - both physical and spiritual. As a result, all people will experience a physical death at some point in their life. Also, a person's relationship with Jehovah God was destroyed. Remember, before their disobedience Jehovah God walked with them in the Garden of Eden. How does Jesus, Your Messiah and Savior, fit into the Edenic Covenant? In reality, the Fall of Man laid the groundwork for God's Gracious Plan Of Redemption. 

How does a person receive the free gift from Jehovah God of becoming saved and receiving Eternal Life? Romans 10:9-13 says, "That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved. For with the heart one believes to righteousness and with the mouth confession is made to salvation. For the Scripture says, 'Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.' For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For whoever calls upon the name of The Lord shall be saved."

  Thank You . . . Our Lord  Messiah And Savior!

Adam and Eve broke the Edenic Covenant through their disobedience. However, even before Creation,  Jehovah God had a future Plan Of Redemption! Stay Tuned!

Hallelujah . .  Hallelujah . . . Hallelujah . . . Hallelujah
