1 Cor. 1:20 “All the promises of God find their yes in him (Christ). That is why we utter our Amen to God for His glory”.
Christians, through Christ, are the true Israel. In Philippians 3:3 Paul, speaking to gentiles, tells us “For we are the circumcision”.
Christ made changes, but Christ did not change God not the promises God made. No man is a high priest, Christ is our high priest. There is no earthly temple, we are the temple. The kingdom of God is not symbolically shown as the camp in the wilderness symbolized the kingdom, the kingdom is among us. No fleshly circumcision is required, our circumcision is of the heart. The laws of our Lord are no longer only literal laws, but are laws of the spirit.
The most important change that Christ made to the old testament was those three days He was dead in the flesh and alive inn the spirit. No longer are we to use the symbolic blood of Christ by sacrificing animals, Christ gave His blood for our sins.
The promises God gave to Israel in the old testament are still in effect today for those adopted into Israel through Christ.
