As a Jewish convert and believer in the salvation of Yeshua, who has been redeemed and cleansed from all sin by the blood of Jesus Christ, could any of you give ONE NT promise that God has given and can only apply to the church and His body, that you truly believe in and are trusting God for as a NT believer. If you can, would you please mention what that promise is and give the reference in scripture from whence it comes.

If I asked you to give a couple of NT commandments that we should obey as believers, you would probably have no problem listing those because of your orientation toward keeping commandments. So why is it so difficult for you to mention the promises of God under the new covenant that our Lord has given to us as a church body? Are not the promises of God according to Peter (a Jewish Apostle) the means by which we escape the corruption that is in the world through lust and the means by which we become a partaker of God's divine nature (2Pt 1:4)? Are not the promises of God essential in our relationship in trusting in the character of God and in trusting those promises, is it not a work of faith that pleases God as much as obeying any commandment?

Every believer is saved and cleanse by the blood through faith in the promise of God. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved is a promise from God given to every sinner that is separated from God through sin. The gift of the Holy Spirit is a promise from God given to every one that believes upon the Son. Shouldn't we as believers be thankful and consider any faith and trust that we have in the promises of God as an act of obedience toward the Promiser and wouldn't God impute that on our account as righteousness?

Can you clarify what you mean by Jewish convert?

Quite sure you would include me from past experience with you, but I'm not sure what you mean by Jewish convert?

You are seeking the answer of this question for your own learning.

The Bible says:
Revelation 14
12Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Matthew 7

21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

If you want to ignore scripture and continue trying to teach others that they are in error, then so be it.... I will continue you to show you scripture that does not agree with you.

Good question, it could be confusing. The Jewish convert I am asking is not one that converts to Judaism but rather a Jew who converts to biblical Christianity through believing upon the Lord Jesus Christ (Yeshua) and is a member of the NT church and body of Christ. (Is 6:10/Acts 28:27, Mt 18:3, Mk 4:12, Acts 3:19, Eph 2:13-19, Rom 1:16, 10:11-13)

Through accepting Yahshua the Messiah into my heart I received the New covenant of Yahvah God and the fruit of this be a loving obedience to his 10 Commandments.

I've never been a Jewish person as a practicing Faith.....

Never been to a synagogue and no member of my family does either....

I will be honest with you here and show my lack of knowledge, I once watched the film meet the parents, and heard a line say "oh your jewish" " so was JC" not exact but the jist of it.......... some of you may recall, and I considered at that moment was he???? that was odd.... I thought he was a Christian :)
