ï One plan (Incarnation), one covenant (Abrahamic), one 'delivery system' (Grace) (Again I say read the paragraph prior to the 'decalogue") One Saviour (Jesus-God/Man, Incarnate, Israelite, Second Adam) ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: August 31, 2004 17:16 Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] from O'Reilley to you In a message dated 8/31/2004 12:28:56 PM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I am sorry in the last message you used the term Law, I understand covenant as used in this email. The woman I sleep with most nights is both a wife and a mother.  Two very different things.  Same woman.   The short answer:  There were nine covenants.  Which one were you specifically asking for? Everybody has a niche.   When you use the term Old Covenant it typically refers to the covenant the LORD made with the house of Israel after he brought them out of the land of Egypt.  It established the Levitical Priesthood and system of animal sacrifices.  The New covenant (Abraham, Moses, Isaac, Jacob, David, etcâ) established that the Law would be written in their hearts and on their minds. This paragraph may come back to haunt you.   Time will tell.  Right now, I agree with your thought, above, in a general sense.   I think we should be very careful about not interchanging the word Law with the word covenant.  They are not the same.  The Law addresses all the covenants; which incidentally are part of the LAW. Your are getting close to this "interchange"  in the preceding paragraph.   Tim  --  are you trying to win the discussion or have a discussion.   If it is about winning,  hey, I think I can do that but to what avail.?   Try to imagine that someone (me) who has been around for a while, would see a difference between "law" and "covenant."   You asked if I observed the Sabbath.  I sincerely appreciate the way you phrased that question.  The commandment states that we are to âremember the Sabbathâ.  To say I keep Sabbath is indicating that Sabbathâs keeping is within my power.  The Mother of Harlots re-wrote that command saying âKeep the Sabbath Holyâ. LOL.   I love rudeness.   I just have to shake my head and laugh.  To answer your question, I observe the Sabbath, remembering that God made it Holy. Thanks for trying to figure out what I was asking.   Do you keep the Law? As defined in terms of faith (conviction), love and the Spirit  -- absolutely.   C. Tim Winkley Aka Law Man
