As far as the last point/destination of gentiles are concerned, it is clearly written in Pslams 10:16 ’’ The LORD is King for ever and ever: the HEATHEN ARE PERISHED OUT OF HIS LAND. ’’ Many christians talk about the New Covenant, or testament. It is often used to refer to a collection of books written by the authors of the greek bible. A common belief among christians is that there is a new covenant that is active today that replaces the covenant G-d made with Moses on Mt. Sinai. They say that Jesus is this new covenant, or that the New Testament is this new covenant. While we all talk ‘about’ this new covenant, most christians do not know the terms that make up this new covenant. The New Covenant is not the collection of books commonly known as the new testament. If the New Covenant is to be made with the House of Israel and House of Judea only, as G-d promised in Jeremiah 31.31-36, why does the New Covenant seem to apply it to all christian gentiles? Similarly, in Ezekiel 36:26 we see the new heart and spirit, indicative of the New Covenant. Is it possible that G-d promised this “New Covenant” to another group of people for another time? There is a great deal of misinformation concerning what this Covenant really is that has been taught by christianity over the centuries. When Jeremiah said that the New Covenant would be made “with the house of Israel and the house of Judah,” it would have been quite obvious to his audience exactly who he meant by these titles. Gentiles are not included in this New Covenant. Therefore, the New Covenant spoken of here can’t refer to any christian idea of a New Covenant that includes gentiles. Jeremiah guarantees the New Covenant to the literal descendants of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob—the Jewish people, and verse 37 states that they will never be rejected by G-d in spite of all they have done. In this unconditional covenant there’s certainly no idea of G-d replacing or redefining Israel—then, or at any time in the future. The question of the two Houses of Israel poses a thought, new to some people, old to others. Among christians there have been many misconceptions concerning the house of Israel, and the house of Judah. Much in the Hebrew Bible is misunderstood and incorrectly taught, because the Two Houses of Israel are often overlooked. These misconceptions have led to many false teachings, such as, the house of Judah are the Jews and the house of Israel are the christian gentiles. That argument does not hold water. Yet many christians assert that the New Covenant is now in effect. G-d will only make this covenant with the Houses of Israel and Judah, the ‘church’ cannot steal it for themselves and it still in the future. Here this covenant is contrasted to the written Torah — this new covenant will be identified by the heart having Torah. Torah will be renewed among the Houses of Israel and Judah, and will be written in their hearts. We should notice also, the verses above state that when the new covenant occurs, “all of them, from the least of them to the greatest, shall heed me” and that “no longer will they need to teach one another.” In essence, no one will need to teach the Torah because everyone will be keeping it. Are christians keeping Torah? No. Assuming that Torah “is out”, do all missionaries love their brothers and follow the words of their man-god, jesus? No. No matter how it is interpreted, christian missionaries don’t meet the criteria listed here. Nobody does. The New Covenant spoken of here has yet to come. Psalm 105:7 states, “He is the Lord our God; His judgments are throughout the earth. He is ever mindful of His covenant, the promise He gave for a thousand generations, that He made with Abraham, swore to Isaac, and confirmed in a decree for Jacob, for Israel, as an eternal covenant.” As far as the last point/destination of gentiles are concerned, it is clearly written in Pslams 10:16 ’’ The LORD is King for ever and ever: the HEATHEN ARE PERISHED OUT OF HIS LAND. ’’ Many christians talk about the New Covenant, or testament.
