Eighty-six Contrasts of the Old and
New Covenants The Context
The plan of God is to end evil and suffering forever (Exodus 34:6-7; Psalm 34; Matthew 13:37-43; I Corinthians 15:24-28; Galatians 6:7-8; 1 Timothy 1:5; Revelation 21-22). The ultimate purpose of God in all His present dealings with humankind is to bring him back to the place where he was before the fall (beloved personal fellowship & harmony and abundance) and free him from the possibility of failing in the future. There are 1,050 commands in the New Testament’s instruction for
which Christians are to obediently keep. They cover every phase of a person's
life in his relationship to God and his fellowmen, now and
hereafter. If obediently yielded to, they will bring rich rewards here
and forever; if not yielded, they will bring consequences. They are
not to be confused with the 10 commandments which were abolished along with
the law of Moses: Eighty-six

New Testament “And the very God
of peace sanctify you wholly, and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul
and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ”
(1 Thess. “For His divine power has given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and goodness. And by that same mighty power, He has given to us exceeding great and precious promises; that by these you all might be partakers of the Divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” (2 Peter1:3-4) There are 750 promises in the New Testament alone. “Beloved,
I wish above all things that
you may prosper and be in health,
even as your soul prospers.” (3 John 1:2) “Therefore if any person be in Christ, s/he is
a new creature, old things
are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) The Key
That Unlocks All
Promises “This Good News tells us how God makes us right in
his sight. This is accomplished from start to finish by faith. As the Scriptures
say, ‘The just shall live by faith.’” (Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Habakkuk 2:4) “So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Hebrews 3:19) See Doubt and Unbelief
concerning God’s Word “Be
careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication
[prayer as from neediness] with thanksgiving let your requests be made known
unto God.” (Philippians 4:6) See The Art of Prayer “For we wrestle
not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in
high places.” (Ephesians 6:12) See the
reality of evil,

purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Ephesians Thank you Finis Jennings Dake and Dake
