The Greatest Testament
Transcript of Pastor (Dr) Shawn's teaching: The Greatest Testament.
"Kreitton" means nobler, more sublime, superiour, excellent. What makes this New Testament superiour? It is not Syntheke. It is not a conditional arrangement between two parties to fulfill certain promises on the basis of the actions of either party. Covenant consciousness leads some believers to say to themselves that if I do not have this it is because I have not do this or that. Changed paradigm. Times have changed. God now deals exclusively with man on the basis of faith alone in Christ alone. You are the temple of God and the Lord God deals with you one one one as his temple. Diatheke is not a covenant, as it were. It means a declaration of one's Will, a Testament that has been enforced by the death of the Testator. A will that has been ratified, not as a result of an agreement between two parties but the arrangement of one party, independent of the other, by means of plenary powers, whereby the other party may accept or reject what is offered in the Testament but what is offered in the Testament cannot be altered nor changed. What the Lord Jesus has done for us has been waiting for us for 2000 years! You can accept it! You can reject it! But it is never going to be changed! He did not ask your permission to do anything that he did! When he went to the Cross he did not come to seek your consent as to whether or not you would want him to die for you. With his all plenary powers, independent of your decision, he drafted a Testament: he died. Upon his death, the Testament is now in full force. In a Covenant you have to do something. In a Testament you have to be someone. You have to be the person mentioned as the beneficiary of the Will or the Testament! That is why in the Old Testament you have to do right to be right with God. In the New Testament you have to be right to be right with God. Changed Paradigm. In the Old Testament in doing right you be right. In the New Testament in being right you do right.
Christ-ianity is not so much about doing right than in being right. The subject of the New Testament is the subject of Identification and Identity. If you are a believer and you are sick: it is because you are identifying with sickness. If you are a believer and you are poor: it is because you are identifying with poverty! If you are a believer and you are cursed: it is because you identify with the curse!
Etc.
That is why this is called a TESTAMENT! You are supposed to look at what Christ did, from the Cross to the throne, and then look at his substitution which substitution says that all these things were done by you (me), since I (you were) was in him, and then consider that all these things have been accredited for my (your) benefit and then take full possession of my (your) possessions. I now have to have an exchange or interchange at the Cross. The Great Exchange!At the Cross he became what I was so that I should become who he is!He became sin that I might become the righteousness of God.He became the curse that the blessings might come upon me!He took my infirmity in order that I should be made whole. He took my poverty and was crowned with thorns so that I might be crowned with glory and honour! The gospel has to change my identity, which I identify with, determines my access to my inheritance.It is not a matter of spending all day long begging God to do something.Oh God: Gimme. Gimme. Gimme! My name is Jimmy! Identification determined your access to the inheritance.Are you the person stated as beneficiary? My Identity gives me access to the inheritance.You do not have to do anything!You are the heir to the inheritance.Why are these promises better promises? Simple.They are unconditional rather than conditional!They cannot be broken!They cannot be revoked!Prayers like O God, do not abandon me, do not forsake me are blasphemies!How can you think that he is going to forsake you?
The man himself said:
Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
How can that idea even cross your mind?
O God, I pray that there will be provision in Jesus Name:
What makes you think there will be no provision?
Because God is Omnipotent: I am Omni-prosperous.
End of First Transcript of Pastor (Dr) Shawn's teaching: The Greatest Testament.
A testament, or a will, is a better covenant, because the testament is not always predicated on pre-conditionality, conditionality, advance payments, 419 scams, as well as other forms "if, shall and shall not clause."
Moreover the Testator of this Better Covenant or Better Testament of Better Will is the Lord Jesus, first son of the El Elyon with the full backing of the Lord God himself who cannot lie:
Nu 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? (KJV)
A Testament, or a will, is superior to a covenant
An inheritance is superior to a covnant.
Tat is why it is called a better covenant enacted upon better promises.
The Lord our God is a covenant-keeping God.
Ps 132:12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
Friend:
My God is faithful.
1Co 1:9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
The Bible says a man who does not provide for his children and those of his household is worse than an infidel.
1Ti 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
My God is not an infidel.
That is why long, long ago, even before I was formed in the womb, he made provision for me: exceeding abundantly above all that I even see or think.
He also named a Mesites Kreitton Diatheke, even the Lord Jesus himself, to make sure that I am adequately provided for and that I lack for nothing.
As Pastor Dr Shawn says: at every given moment the resources of my God surpasses the need.
That is why I cannot lack.
That is why my victory is assured.
Yours too in Christ.
1Jo 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our (MY) faith.
Yours too.
You who is reading this!
Receive ye the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name!
That these things must penetrate your spirit in Jesus name!
Friend:
This is not religion and religiosity.
This is Christ-ianity.
Ro 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
The Mesites Kreitton Diatheke now makes intercession for me continually.
The Mesites Kreitton Diatheke does not need to supervise blood offerings of bulls and goats anymore because he offered himself as a propitiatory and as a sacrifice one and for all times.
Reason why the Lord God has highly exalted him and made him the Mediator of all the good things that we need. The Lord God knows that we need these good things that is why the Lord God himself he appointed the Lord Jesus, the very first of the first fruits, to be the guarantor of our needs.
The Tragedy called Denominationalism and Religiosity.
See Matthew 22
The parable of the rich king and his wayward subjects.
Or the parable of the foolish man who refused the free robe of righteousness.
Or the parable of the Israelites in decline who refused the first offer of salvation and killed the prophets
Mt22: 1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
Where the first choice friends declined to attend the wedding ceremony of the Son of God, and murdered his messengers, the rest of us, Gentiles; beggars, murderers, etc. were offered brand new wedding robes, declared righteous and qualified to come to the feast.
Notice in the above parable that the poor fool (Pharisee) who refused the freely offered brand new wedding garment to cover his filthy robes and instead defined his own righteousness was cast out.
Ro 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Friend, once more, the Old Testament was given unto a specific generation of Jews.
And that generation perished.
Friend, the Lord God does not expect you to obey the law.
He knows very well that you cannot obey the law.
He made you himself and he knows your very frame, what exactly you are cut for and what you are not.
We must not try to take the laws in the Old Testament as the laws that God wants us to obey today.
The Old Testament was not unto us and we must not try to obey them.
For several reasons.
1. They Lord Jesus fulfilled them in our place. Not only will we fail to obey them but we are actually defining our own righteousness. What we are then saying is that Christ died in vain. What we are saying then is that the Christ did not take away our sins of yesterday, today and tomorrow on the Cross. We are saying that we, being essentially sin, were never crucified in Christ on the Cross; we did not die with him; we never resurrected with him and hence we have not inheritance with him. What you are saying is that you repudiate eternal life freely given unto all who believe and confess Christ. Whereas the word of God states the opposite.
Ro 3: 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. 29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: 30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
2. We have no business obeying the Old Testament because they have been abolished by Christ and in Christ.
Eph 2: 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 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. 14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
See verse 15 again.
Having abolished.
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
The Lord God even calls the Old Testament enmity – the enemy that separated us from him.
3. The Old Testament was nailed to the Cross.
In Colossians 2:8-23, Paul makes it clear the Old Testament has been nailed to the cross. Because of that, no one is bound to keep the feast days, the Sabbath day, or anything else in the Old Testament.
Colossians 2: 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. 18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God. 20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, 21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not; 22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
4. We are children of the New Covenant, the Covenant of Life (eternal life) and not the Covenant of law, sin and death.
Friend, Christ-ianity is not a religion meaning the practice of rituals (mostly pagan rituals) FOR the benefit of a heathen god. God is love and he created us for an interactive relationship in truth and in spirit for God is a spirit.
1Jo 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
1Jo 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
God, who is love, wants us to live in unbroken conversational praise and worship and fellowship with Him.
Heb 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
The voice of the Lord God is the voice of faith. His voice is in his word, written in our hearts; written on tablets of clay; written in the Bible or spoken to the children of faith.
Ro 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
5. We were in Christ on the Cross and hence we were crucified (purified) and justified (just as if we nevr sinnd) in Christ.
Ro 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Ga 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts
