The Old and the New covenant

Genesis 2:24
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

Matthew 19:4-6
“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female, and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”

“Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you now dismiss[a] your servant in peace. For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all people, a light for revelation to the Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel.”

Isaiah 49:6

The Old and the New Covenant

Isaiah 2:3
Many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Luke 1:32-33

He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end.

If Jesus is not the Messiah, than who can this man be? Who is this God who was suppose to come to the House of Jacob, and teach them to walk in the paths of the God of Jacob?  For the first 300 years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, the majority of His faithful followers were Jews. They gladly accepted the mission, to bring the good news out from Jerusalem to the whole World.  Today, there are people who believe that Jesus is the Messiah in every village, and every city on the face of the Earth.

so that you may know that I am the LORD,
