Comments Off on Defining the Old Covenant: the National covenant, Videos, by CGP.
There are many misconceptions about Israel’s covenant with God.
What did it entail?
Who were the parties to the covenant and what was the purpose of the covenant?
Were there conditions and consequences inherent in the covenant?
What were the benefits and what did the covenant envision for the future?
Jeff Patton answers all of these questions from the scriptures, defining the old covenant, so you can understand God’s vision for Israel.

Would it surprise you to know that:
The covenant was not a contract
The “Old” covenant was not “done away”
Christ did not abolish the law, the covenant
The covenant was not a “marriage”
The covenant is everlasting
Comments Off on The Better Promises of the New Covenant, Videos, by CGP.
Old? Outdated? Obsolete? Have you been told a lie about scripture? The writer of the book of Hebrews tells us that long after Christ’s death and resurrection, the first covenant was growing old and was in the process of vanishing, yet it was still in effect. However, Christ came to offer a new, or refreshed covenant, and though it did not replace the old it did have better promises! What were the better promises of the new covenant that were offered to those who would participate in this covenant that was mediated by Christ and created a family relationship with God the Father?
Comments Off on Is the Old Covenant Obsolete?, Videos, by CGP.
Is the old covenant obsolete, the covenant God made with the nation of Israel? Many people think obsolete means that the old covenant was “done away,” was “abrogated,” and is of no effect now. But is this true?
What is the writer of Hebrews really saying when he uses the words, that we translate “obsolete” and “passing away?”
It may surprise you to know the truth of the matter.

From the Song of Moses to the book of Revelation, the scriptures testify to God’s nature for above all else he is the God of truth. We worship God because he is true — firm, steadfast, stable. Truth is the reality; from the marvellous miniature design of our DNA to the vast expanses of the universe our God created and controls everything that is real. So do you have the hope and confidence that comes from a love of the truth and the God whose nature is true?

It is God’s spirit that leads us into all truth as we read his word.

Coming Soon: Dystopia
Recently there have been a variety of movies released by Hollywood that have been exploring the “post-apocalyptic” or “dystopian” themes about the future. Generally speaking, in such movies civil society is going or has already gone to hell – the reasons vary. As a result, everyone is left scrambling to survive or die amidst ruins, violence, and fear, except for the hero of the story and his/her love interest who somehow manage to save the day and restore hope in some form. Or, if it’s a European movie, the hero gets killed off and the villains win…But what about the reality, what is in our future?

God of Mercy: Remember All His Benefits
While Canada and the US celebrate their national holidays, it would seem many have forgotten the source of their blessings. They are the “nones,” atheists, agnostics, and those with “no particular religion” who see no role for a God of mercy in their lives. On the other hand, David, the psalmist, reminds us to, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not his benefits.” So what are those benefits, and how does God extend his mercy to all those who worship and serve Him?
Today, in a 5 to 4 split decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the so-called “equal protection” amendment should be interpreted to mean that marriage cannot be restricted to only heterosexual couples since homosexual couples must also have equal rights to access marriage licenses. This same amendment, which was enacted during the U.S. Civil War period some 150 years ago, also was used by the court in 1973 to create via judicial reasoning a right to abortion. An explicit reading of the 14th amendment says absolutely nothing about either abortion or homosexual marriage.
