The Prophetic Presbyterian & His Narrow Way

Some people think the thief on the cross & we ourselves are not under 2 different systems of law & that the New Testament itself was not in effect at that time.     First, this belief assumes that the Bible speaks of something called The New Covenant.      That’s not true.     The term “New Covenant” is confessional language drawn from Historical Theology that people read back into the text due to several centuries of Ecclesiastical Tradition.    In truth, the term “new” is an adjective that describes every covenant emanating from God when the covenants are considered in relation to one another.      Consider the Abrahamic Covenant & the Mosaic Covenant.    In relation to one another, the Abrahamic Covenant is the old covenant & the Mosaic Covenant is the new covenant. Likewise, in  relation to the Davidic Covenant the Mosaic Covenant is old & the Davidic is new.     The term ne...

If the Unjust are not redeemed, then what happens to them in the final Judgment?  1 Corinthians 15:42–49 (ESV): So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.  Ephemeral bodies are dishonorable, corr...

Restore Us to Yourself, O  Lord 5  Remember, O  Lord , what has befallen us;      look, and see our disgrace! 2  Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers,      our homes to foreigners. 3  We have become orphans, fatherless;      our mothers are like widows. 4  We must pay for the water we drink;      the wood we get must be bought. 5  Our pursuers are at our necks;      we are weary; we are given no rest. 6  We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria,      to get bread enough. 7  Our fathers sinned, and are no more;      and we bear their iniquities. 8  Slaves rule over us;      there is none to deliver us from their hand. 9  We get our bread at the peril of our lives,      because of the sword in the wilderness. 10  Our s...

The Holy Stones Lie Scattered 4  How the gold has grown dim,      how the pure gold is changed! The holy stones lie scattered      at the head of every street. 2  The precious sons of Zion,      worth their weight in fine gold, how they are regarded as earthen pots,      the work of a potter's hands! 3  Even jackals offer the breast;      they nurse their young; but the daughter of my people has become cruel,      like the ostriches in the wilderness. 4  The tongue of the nursing infant sticks      to the roof of its mouth for thirst; the children beg for food,      but no one gives to them. 5  Those who once feasted on delicacies      perish in the streets; those who were brought up in purple      embrace ash heaps. 6  For the chastisement [ a ]...
