On the answer to these questions hangs the very heart of God's church, God's bride. One side says that Christ came to divide and cancel, so the church is a divided house that is soon to fall. The other side says that Christ was planned from the beginning, Christ was from the beginning, and all our world is and always has included Christ.
One side sees Christ in the sacrificial system used before Christ lived as a man, the other side says Christ deleted, got rid of, destroyed the sacrificial system. One side says the Levi priests showed the world Christ, the other side says Christ destroyed the old Levi priests. One side says that men were told to include the awareness of Christ and God in everything they did from washing hands to foods they chose to eat through rituals, just as we have the Holy Spirit today to listen to as guides to awareness of everything we do centered on Christ, the other side says that is only Judaism that Christ wiped out and destroyed. One side says the New Covenant wiped out everything but that, covenants aren't to be trusted at all, the other side says the New is wonderful and is an even better agreement with our loving and merciful God. One side sees the improvements, the other side works for destruction.
One side is for destruction, for division in the church. They don't want to build or make anything better, they just want destruction. The other side is for God and the church.

I didn't copy this entire rant against scripture, but I have kept the gist of it in the highlighted and underlined part. Basically, it says that because scripture uses certain times and people to explain God principles to us, we should not read any scripture as from God to us, only as from God to the times it is addressing.
These people preaching destruction say that Christ can be read as for us today, nothing else. They Christ, being the new and fresh that Christ was 2,000 years ago, is fresh today. Christ wanted people to use His blood, to use Him as the high priest, etc. so when that is what we are supposed to do, that has to mean we destroy anything that explained Him, before. Shadows, old wineskins, principles of God the Father our world is built on, destroy the whole works. Just read this post.

Well lets take a look at the word Covenant. That is another word for legal binding agreement or contract which the Word of God is. There is only one law you will find int the NT that is not in the old which Jesus said I give you a new commandment, John 13:34-35 [SUP]34 [/SUP]“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. [SUP]35 [/SUP]By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” The law was never given to be done by works but faith Rom 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. Rom 9:30-32 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith. But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone. So there was nothing wrong with the law except that it could not save or be a total removal of sin. Again every commandment you fine in the new testament you will find in the old except one.

Re: The new covenant of Christ Jesus
In the past God spoke to our ancestors through Moses: Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates - and - you shall love your neighbor as yourself.
In these last days he has spoken to us by his Son: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.
Again, some probably think "hang" means "executed" or "terminated" and the same way "fulfill" means "get rid of".
