God made a false promise, he lied. The new covenant promised that the law would be written in our minds and inscribed in our hearts, no longer would neighbour need to teach neighbour (Jeremiah 31:33). But in Acts, we see several times where newly baptised people are being taught by the apostles, being told to go to synagogues to be taught Moses laws (god’s laws). And not one single baptised person has ever been taught the law by the Holy Spirit, always they are taught by others (if at all). So, cast iron proof that it’s all a load of bullshit, fiction to enslave us. Also, Jesus arranged for Paul to be tortured by demons, just for the hell of it. Follow that?
Wonderful teaching
What did God say at Sinai about those who love Him and keep His commandments? His words from Sinai are clear to define who He says who is blessed, as well as who He said are cursed. This is my accounting of the consolidated Covenant Standards of the Ten Decrees, Blessed, and Cursed, reportedly 3000 years old and published in 2021. Let’s keep the words of God in mind as we review the claims of Saul/Paul, and also for the teachings of Jesus. Isaiah 56 says those of all nations who keep Covenant with Him will be spared/saved. Isn’t this what Jesus taught in Matthew?
I am Elohim, your god, who freed you from the land of Egypt, from the slave-house. You shall not have any other gods. You shall not make a carving or any image that is in the heavens above or the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth. You shall not prostrate yourselves before them, and you shall not serve them. Blessed is the man who has Elohim as his god, and who prostrates himself only to him, and who serves him alone. Cursed is the man who does a carving or a casting, the handiwork of a craftsman. I am Elohim, your god.
Sanctify the seventh day and rest on it. For in six days I made the heavens and the earth and all that is in them, and I rested on the seventh day. Therefore you too shall rest, along with your livestock and all that you have. Blessed is the man who sanctifies the seventh day and rests on it. Cursed is the man who does work on the seventh day I am Elohim, your god.
Honor your father and your mother. Blessed is he who honors his father and his mother. Cursed is he who disgraces his father and mother. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not slay the soul of your brother. Blessed is the man who does not avenge or exact retribution for the soul of his brother. Cursed is he who strikes down his fellow in secret. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not commit adultery with the wife of your fellow. Blessed is the man who does not defile the wife of his fellow. Cursed is the man who approaches any of his kin, or who commits adultery with the wife (woman) of his fellow, or who copulates with any animal. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not steal the property of your brother. Blessed is the man who does not cheat his fellow. Cursed is he who moves the boundary marker of his fellow. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not swear in my name falsely, for I shall avenge the transgression of the fathers against the sons, grandsons, and great grandsons for those who bear my name falsely. Blessed is the man who does not swear in my name falsely. Cursed is the man who swears falsely in my name. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not submit against your fellow a false judgment. Blessed is the man who does not deceive or lie to his fellow. Cursed is he who takes a bribe to give false judgment against his comrade. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not desire the woman of your fellow, his male servant, his female servant, or anything that is his. Blessed is he who does not lust after anyone belonging to his fellow. Cursed is the man who desires and lusts after the woman of his fellow, his daughter, his female servant, or anything that is his. I am Elohim, your god.
You shall not hate your brother in your heart. Blessed is the man who loves his fellow. Cursed is the man who hates his brother in his heart. I am Elohim, your god.
It is these ten pronouncements that Elohim uttered to you upon the mountain from amid the fire. Blessed is the man who upholds all the proclamations of this teaching to perform them. Cursed is the man who does not uphold all the proclamations of this teaching to perform them.
Had Israel been infused with the knowledge of the Covenant, there is no way that the Ten Decrees could have been altered by the corrupted priesthood and scribes near the time of Ezekiel, and the obvious fact "V" tells is that they did, and all should repent to believe the unaltered words given by Elohim, which are now restored after almost 3000 years!!!! Jesus did teach according to the Original Decrees – as we can note his sayings about what one calls another – such as "you fool!" to be a dangerous thing to do – which is in total accord with "You shall not hate your brother in your heart. I am Elohim, your god." (the deleted commandment)
We must also note who God declared "Blessed" or "Cursed", as we consider these things every day, in what we say and do. As for me, I choose to believe God is true to His word – but not the alterations of the Pharisees or Rome. Our hope should be that, as God told Cain, he was responsible and capable to repent and do rightly to be in proper relationship with both God and his brother. May Elohim be merciful towards those who did the best they could with what they were able to know, but surely, since we can now know – we must surely repent to believe His words as given, not as altered by those of the evil one – who was cursed for doing so! As Isaiah 42 foretells: Restore!
Brother, can you please make a video explaining to many who are confused YouTube that those who are in Christ cannot make a covenant with Satan. And if there are any examples in scripture of an evil covenant being honored. Thank you!
thank you for blessing me with this. i just loved it so much. so much grace from god. thank you.
Its the Abraham covenant i have questions on. How can Abraham make a covenant with God when Abraham is passed out on the floor in a coma? And its a furnace AND flaming torch that moves. Not a flaming furnace but two distinct physical representations, a furnace and a flaming torch. And it’s not what but who is the representation of the flaming torch because furnace is the representation of God. So…did Abraham make a covenant with God when God knows man will fail the covenant?
This is superbly done!!
The Legal-Theological Analysis of Covenantal Exclusivity: A Critical Examination of Non-Israelite Claims to Divine Covenant
Abstract
This paper critically examines the covenantal exclusivity embedded within the Hebrew Scriptures. It evaluates the legal, theological, and linguistic parameters of covenantal participation and challenges non-Israelite claims to divine covenant. By referencing primary biblical texts, linguistic analysis, and comparative Ancient Near Eastern treaty practices, this analysis demonstrates the limitations on covenant inclusion for non-converting Gentile populations, providing a robust response to potential counterarguments from early Christian theologians such as Marcion, Eusebius, Irenaeus, and Tertullian.
I. Introduction to Covenantal Privity
The Hebrew Scriptures establish a bilateral covenantal relationship between Yahuah and Israel, exclusive to the defined participants. This section examines the textual evidence and linguistic structures that enforce this exclusivity.
A. Textual Evidence for Exclusivity
The covenant relationship between Yahuah and Israel is explicitly codified in Exodus 19:5-6:
“Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.”
Linguistic Analysis
The Hebrew phrase שָׁמַר בְּרִיתִי (shamar beriti, "keep My covenant") employs a qal imperative, indicating a binding and specific obligation.
The possessive suffix -י (-i, "My") restricts the covenant exclusively to Yahuah and the addressed party, Israel.
B. Covenant Renewal and Continuity
The renewal of covenant terms in Jeremiah 31:31-33 explicitly reaffirms its exclusivity:
“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah… I will put My law within them, and I will write it on their hearts.”
The Hebrew terms בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל (beit Yisrael, "house of Israel") and בֵּית יְהוּדָה (beit Yehudah, "house of Judah") explicitly name the covenant’s participants.
Counterpoint to Marcion and Others
Early Christian theological Apologist such as Marcion attempted to reinterpret Jeremiah’s prophecy as universal. However, the lack of textual evidence for third-party inclusion undermines this claim.
II. Third-Party Beneficiary Theory in Biblical Law
A. Legislative Framework for Non-Israelite Inclusion
Exodus 12:48-49 establishes a pathway for covenantal inclusion for the גֵּר (ger, "stranger/sojourner"):
“If a stranger sojourns with you and keeps the Passover to Yahuah, let all his males be circumcised, and then he may come near and keep it; he shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.”
Lexical Distinctions
גֵּר (ger): A stranger who accepts and adheres to Israel’s covenantal terms.
נָכְרִי (nokhri): A foreigner with no covenantal obligations or privileges.
B. Conditions for Covenant Participation
Non-Israelite participation requires:
1. Circumcision (מוּל, mul): A physical and legal sign of covenant acceptance.
2. Torah observance (שָׁמַר, shamar): Adherence to divine commandments.
3. Community integration (קָהָל, qahal): Inclusion within the covenantal assembly.
III. Documentary Evidence Requirements
A. Written Record Mandate
Covenantal agreements are consistently formalized in written form:
1. Exodus 24:4: “And Moses wrote down all the words of Yahuah.”
2. Deuteronomy 31:26: “Take this Book of the Law and put it beside the ark of the covenant of Yahuah your God, that it may be there as a witness against you.”
3. Jeremiah 31:33: “I will put My law within them, and I will write it on their hearts.”
Legal Implications
The Hebrew term עֵד (ed, "witness") denotes a formal, verifiable document. Ancient Near Eastern treaties used similar practices to ensure covenant validity, limiting claims to the documented parties.
IV. Legal Framework for Covenant Claims
A. Statutory Requirements
The Torah sets immutable parameters for covenant interpretation:
Deuteronomy 4:2: “You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it.”
תֹּסֵפוּ (tosefu): Prohibition against unauthorized additions.
תִּגְרְעוּ (tigre’u): Prohibition against unauthorized omissions.
Counterpoint to Marcion and Tertullian
Claims of a "new" and universal covenant ignore this statutory immutability. Jeremiah 31 emphasizes renewal (Hebrew: חָדָשׁ, chadash, meaning "renewed") rather than replacement.
B. Equitable Considerations
Isaiah 56:6-7 describes the conditions for equitable inclusion:
“And the foreigners who join themselves to Yahuah, to minister to Him, to love the name of Yahuah… and hold fast My covenant—these I will bring to My holy mountain.”
The term נִלְוִים (nilvim, "join themselves") indicates voluntary submission to covenantal terms, including Sabbath observance and Torah adherence.
V. Case Study: The Ruth Paradigm
Ruth’s integration into Israel provides a legal template for Gentile inclusion:
1. Declaration of allegiance: “Your people shall be my people, and your God my God” (Ruth 1:16).
2. Cultural assimilation: Ruth adopts Israelite identity and customs.
3. Torah observance: Her actions align with covenantal law.
VI. Conclusions
Key Findings
1. Covenantal privity limits participation to Israel and Judah (Jeremiah 31:31-33).
2. Third-party inclusion requires explicit legal steps (Exodus 12:48-49).
3. Written documentation is mandatory for covenant claims (Exodus 24:4).
4. Oral reinterpretations violate Torah statutes (Deuteronomy 4:2).
5. Equitable claims demand full Torah observance (Isaiah 56:6-7).
Closing Loopholes Against Early Church Arguments
1. Marcion’s Universalism: Contradicted by covenantal exclusivity in Jeremiah 31 and Deuteronomy 4:2.
2. Eusebius’ Continuity Claims: No textual evidence supports Gentile claims without Torah adherence.
3. Tertullian’s Allegorical Interpretations: These lack legal basis under Hebrew jurisprudence.

Great teaching on covenant
I have a question about the seed of the serpent… how is the seed (offspring) satan? Offspring come out of the original source. Wouldn’t satan be the serpent and some sort of lineage, seed, offspring come FROM him? Maybe son of perdition?? Judas as satan entered him???
God is Holy and just. The wages of sin is death. Eternal separation from God. We all have sinned by breaking God’s commandments. We all deserve death. God in His great mercy and love humbled Himself and took the form of a human being. He died the death we should have died. He hang on the cross as the perfect lamb of God, taking upon Himself all the sins of the world. He shed His Holy blood on that cross defeating the devil each and every demon and all of them together. He triumphed over death, curses, sicknesses, the devil, each and every demon and all of them together and eternally declared IT IS FINISHED! No human being needs to go to hell. Hell was made for the devil and demons. Jesus Christ rose up again. He is the KING of kings and the LORD of lords. All power and authority in heaven, on earth and in hell belongs to Jesus Christ. Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ, God, is LORD of all. God is love, holy and just. In His eternal love and knowledge He made a way for sinners to become saints, for the sick to be healed, for the cursed to be blessed, for the oppressed to be set free and for the brocken hearted to be made whole. There is no other name under heaven given unto men for us to be saved but the Name of Jesus Christ. Being saved means acknowledging that you are a sinner. Believing in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Repenting and asking God for forgiveness and surrending your life (past, present and future, body, soul and spirit) to God. He will hear your cry, forgive you, cleanse you from your sins with His Holy Blood and give you the power to become His child. Your name will be written in the lamb’s book of life. Then ask God to baptize you with His Holy Spirit who will enable you to live the life that pleases God.
This is an offer from God to each and every human being because He dearly loves humanity. One can accept this offer or reject it. God never forces Himself on anybody. Rejecting this offer means that you will have to stand before the judge of the universe in your own righteousness and try to justify yourself. Since He is Holy your righteousness will never be enough and you will have to hear the words "depart". We will not be able to give God stories on judgement day. He is all knowing, He is everywhere and all powerfull. Indeed Jesus Christ saves from eternal damnation. As long as you are alive the offer still remains. We need His righteousness.
Totally confusing I’m not a huge fan of slicing animals up❤
Hey this was a good lesson I disagree with you on some stuff but you were spot on with this one
The abraham covenant og story is a fake, because it was added after the moses story. If the people were already chosen as favored by god, you don’t need a contract to gain that favor (the ten commandments).
It smacks of caananite customs (the sacrifices etc), so probably was added after they settled in palestine from egypt
Thank you so much for this! 🙂 That was a lot of work to put together.
Understood covenants clearly
It isn’t a covenant with one God there have been many gods and you can tell because they’re all chasing each other around in the Old Testament it’s talking about the gods of this world not the most high what people need to understand is your modern-day Bible is the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil so you need to be able to rightly divide good from evil and study your Greek and Hebrew some people are still eating off the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil and don’t know how to rightly divide child sacrifice is evil it is an evil God an evil spirit the word God is simply a title

I am a Pakistani Christain, and I wish to glorify the name of God by bringing the contents of your YouTube into URDU language.
Found this researching the covenants. Loving the Lab. ❤
God did not show restraint in sparing Noah, Noah found grace in the sight of God while the rest of the world was judged for their wickedness, there was room on the ark for them but they chose the world and sin over God, the same as today. Noah was a preacher of righteousness, something that you’re not.God never gave anyone a blanket application to sin all they want and still go to heaven. Do not believe this false prophet or you will end up in hell with him
It’s a Zionist narrative. So the christian is ever waiting for the kingdom to come in the supposed 1000 year reign.
Thank you for putting all of this together! Very informative! God bless you for all you do!
This is a very good explanation.
Thanks for such a helpful video from Vietnam!
If one were to declare renouncing oaths or covenants with anyone other than the Lord Jesus Christ, could that inadvertantly include covenants with God? Biblically, is that possible?
Powerful stuff – never knew how it all fitted in – thank you very much
so the Abrahamic was not unilateral. it was bilateral because the full promise did not come to pass because the isrealites never took full possession of the promise land. doesnt that make the covenant conditional?
He also said that ei that he will not take it again until he comes againi. With his kingdom . The bread and wine.Luke 22:16
Thank you Sir
Very Helpful, THANK YOU!
This was amazing and so helpful! Thank you for putting this together so people like me can understand more!
I am doing a teaching on covenants, and your teaching was very helpful.
Thanks
Thank you for sharing this❤❤❤
Five Covenants
I personally agree that there is 8 covenants to HOWEVER, I belive there is 2 Main ones. The Old Testament between God and the Israelites where he promises them their blessings if they obeyed and the curses they would receive if they didn’t obey. And the 2nd one being in the New Testament between God and Christians born with the imperishable seed whom can keep his covenant before the second coming of Christ.
❤❤❤❤
Thank you for always patiently explaining everything to us in simple ways.
I love all your videos Sir.
God bless you and your ministry

Joshua 21:43 "So the Lord
gave to Israel all the land of which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they took possession of it and dwelt in it. 44 The Lord
gave them rest all around, according to all that He had sworn to their fathers. And not a man of all their enemies stood against them; the Lord
delivered all their enemies into their hand. 45 Not a word failed of any good thing which the Lord had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass."
1 King’s 8:56 “Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised. There has not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised through His servant Moses."
You are one of the best ministers out here. Thank you!!!
