There Is Only "One" Covenant, and Christians Have Grossly Missed It

Description:

Satan has crippled Christians for the last 1,700 years. He has masterly deceived and drew them into a black pit of obscurity, blurring their minds and distorting the fundamental truth that the entire Bible is not applicable anymore; i.e., that the "Law" has been done away with.

Christians in general do not use the Law (Torah in Hebrew, better known as Instructions from YHWH) as the "foundation" upon which to build their faith. For example, how many churches would take a newly converted sinner and begin to disciple him about sin, repentance from dead works, faith, the born-again experience, etc., from the Torah? See the point?

Most Messianic believers would mentally agree that the Torah is the foundation for understanding the rest of the TaNaCh and the New Covenant Scriptures. Christians hardly ever build the foundation of their faith on the Torah, which is the only true Scriptural source for a "foundation". As with most Christians who were saved and discipled in the traditional church institution, the foundation of their faith was established using only the New Covenant Scriptures. Although the New Covenant Scriptures are God-breathed, they were never intended to be used to form the foundation of our belief-system.

The Torah alone should be the starting point for building a faith foundation after your rebirth in Y’shua the Messiah. The Torah is the foundational revelation about the nature of YHWH and His redemptive dealings with mankind. This teaching will obviously prove it based on Scripture. At this point, Satan will discourage you from reading further; you need to continue reading.

The New Covenant Scriptures are therefore a continuation of the Torah in that they complete (fill up) the revelation of the TaNaCh. How so? We must remember the Torah was a shadow and pattern of good things to come. All concepts and doctrines developed in the New Covenant Scriptures are "already revealed in the Torah"; albeit only as a shadow.

If your faith isn't based upon the foundation of the Torah, then you need to seriously consider studying the Torah diligently for yourself to see what YHWH’s Torah says. If your foundation is built predominantly upon Scriptures from the New Covenant alone, then you will have a less than ideal understanding of YHWH's Scriptures and His will for your life. This less than ideal understanding will exist because you will lack the proper foundational understanding to interpret the rest of the TaNaCh and New Covenant Scriptures correctly.

Bottom-line, it will be impossible to fully comprehend the New Covenant Scriptures without a proper foundation from the Torah. No wonder Y’shua said, "I have not come to destroy the Law (literally meaning, to incorrectly teach the Torah – thereby making it undone), I have come to fulfill the Law (literally meaning, "I have come to explain and interpret the Torah to you correctly")". Therefore, "everything" in the New Covenant Scriptures based on dogma is "clearly" founded in the Torah.
