"THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE OLD TESTAMENT AND NEW TESTAMENT"
You must understand the difference between the Old and New Testaments. Deuteronomy 28:1-2; 1. And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2. And all these blessings shall come on thee,and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God." This shows that God's blessings were conditional. In the Old Testament was the law. Also known as the Ten Commandments. The Ten Commandments were brought down to the Israelites by Moses from Mount Sinai. The law was condemning. If you broke one of them, you were guilty of all. James 2:10; "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." But in the New Testament of Grace, all of your sins, past, present and future sins were forgiven. They were nailed to the Cross with Jesus two thousand years ago. But make no mistake, Grace which is another name for Christ is not a license to sin. You still should glorify God in everything you say and do. Colossians 3:17; "And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." In the Old Testament, animals without blemish were sacrificed on an altar once a year for the forgiveness of sins. But in the New Testament, Jesus was the perfect sacrifice. He died once for all. Hebrews 10:11-13; 11. And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: 12. But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; 13. From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool." There is more about animal sacrifices in the book of Leviticus. Titus 2:11; "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men." The New Testament is better than the Old Testament. Jesus finished everything on the Cross. John 19:30; "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost." Jesus gave us everything we need. 2Peter 1:3; "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:" You have already received salvation and healing. 1Peter 2:24; "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed." Most people will believe a doctor's diagnosis more than God's Word. Be careful of what you say and do. The devil has no control over you except what you give him. Jesus is our advocate. 1John 2:1-2; 1. My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: 2. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world." There was a Shunammite woman whose son died. But she said, It is well. (2Kings 4:8-37). The devil gets into your life by deception. He deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden. You must have faith and trust in God. Hebrews 11:1,6; 1. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." Faith is now. Study God's Word everyday. 2Timothy 2:15; "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 1Corinthians 1:27; "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise: and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;" We are new creations when we are born again and believe in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour. 2Corinthians 5:17; "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." Our spirit is new and we continue to grow in God. Ephesians 2:11-13; 11. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh; who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12. That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13. But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ." Before we accepted Christ, we lived in the flesh. Now we are one with Christ. 1Corinthians 6:17; "But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit." Ephesians 4:22-24; 22. That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23. And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24. And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness." Put away your old ways of speaking. Renew your mind to speak positivity and use God's Word. 1Peter 1:23; "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. Our spirit is incorruptible. We will continue to be renewed as we stay in the Word of God. You are renewed daily. You are no longer under the law. Romans 6:14; "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace." Galatians 3:24-26; 24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 26. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus."
