May 2008 There’s Only One Way The whole theme of the Bible is concerning covenant. God made a covenant with man in the Person of Jesus Christ. When we place our faith in our covenant representative, Jesus, we actually become one with God. We become accepted, received and made whole in Christ. It’s very important where you place your faith. There’s only one way to the Father, and that is not in a Shinto shrine, Buddhist temple, worshipping a Hindu cow or licking a New Age crystal or through the teachings of Reverend Sun Young Moon. You have to go higher than the moon, you’ve got to go to the Son. In John 14:6 Jesus declared, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Many today who have a national and international platform, are brazen in their denial of the Deity of Christ and the authenticity of the Word of God. It has always been necessary that we contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints, and to lift up the Name of Jesus. You will never be ashamed for placing your faith in Jesus. He and He alone can satisfy the longing of the human heart. If you will put your faith and trust in Him today, He will reveal to you marvelous things concerning the covenant. Psalms 25:14 The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. NIV Here is a short but profound poem concerning the subject of covenant. Charlie McReynolds (my uncle), actually was inspired to write this poem after he heard my teachings on the Power of the Covenant. May it be a blessing to you today. Our preacher was talking About the covenant the other day, And it really got me to thinking About "What does the Bible Say?" You can make a covenant Between two or three men. But you can not agree To do away with your sin. The rainbow was a promise That there would be no other flood. And God always made his promises With the shedding of blood. There was a covenant with Noah And Abraham was promised a son. David danced before the arc And Elijah begin to run! The Hebrew Children in the fire And Daniel thrown in the den. When you read all these stories You know for sure who will win. But the main covenant was made on a cross. Jesus died for us all. That one act took care of all mans sins Looking back to Adams fall. So now we have an everlasting pledge Made with the blood of God's own Son. When we enter into this covenant with God Jesus and God and man become as one. © C McReynolds 2008
