| Faultless
Hebrews 8:8 God is at peace with the people of the new covenant because you must agree with God in order to be a part of this covenant. This faith is not a new principle; Hebrews 11. (Address the house of Israel and Judah. There are no divine eternal covenants made with Gentiles or with “churches” as you use the word. All covenants are made with Israel. If you’re a part of God’s covenant, it was a covenant made with Israel. This does NOT mean heathen Gentile people don’t participate in covenants. That’s been assumed, but clearly isn’t true. Second, all covenants God makes after Noah are with people biologically related to Abraham. Romans 9:4 Who are Israelites to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the COVENANTS, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises. Again, this does NOT mean there is no Gentile participation. There were Gentiles taht participated in the old covenant God made with Israel through Moses. Third, all of God’s blessings are to the Jew first, THEN to the Gentile. Paul reiterates that over and over in Romans. It’s not the Jew ONLY, it’s the Jew FIRST. Then it’s explained that Gentiles are graffed into the same root, heathens become fellow-heirs, having abolished in the flesh the enmity and making peace in one body of Jew and Gentile according to Ephesians. Look at Ephesians 2:11-13. Notice the same But now as Hebrews says it. It’s made w/Israel and Judah b/c the covenant is made in Jesus Christ. He is the Hebrew this covenant is made with. John 17 explains the relationship.) |
Faulty
Hebrews 8:8 God would contend with the people of the first covenant to keep them in line. (Address the house of Israel and Judah. There are no divine eternal covenants made with Gentiles or with “churches” as you use the word. All covenants are made with Israel. If you’re a part of God’s covenant, it was a covenant made with Israel. This does NOT mean heathen Gentile people don’t participate. That’s been assumed, but clearly isn’t true.

Must be taught the knowledge of God
Hebrews 8:11 This is a result of how the covenant is entered. Under the old covenant a person entered by birth meaning they begin not knowing why they are considered part of that covenant with God. They must be taught. Deuteronomy 6:6-9 Hosea 4:1-6 Jeremiah 9:24 |
