The New Covenant Is A Bible Restoration Promise

By Joanna Walsh


Right from the time of Noah to the time of the Christ, God had made a lot of promises to His children, the top promise on the list being an assured blessing to those who are obedient to Him. If you take a closer look at some of the Bible restoration promises that happened, you will realize that God was genuine about His promises to humankind. God still make promises to people until this day.

He cursed the womb of Eve, and said that the woman would be subjective to her husband. He cursed man and said that he would sweat all his life to get food to eat. You can imagine that just after He created life, the great King proclaimed death to the world, and since then, sin entered the world and the good relationship between God and man broke.

You already know the rest of the history. But the most interesting thing about God is that He always has a second change, you could say He is a supreme being of second though, abounding in love, kind and always forgiving. He decided that even after destroying first generation with a massive flood that has never been on earth before, he would create a new world by raising a new generation from Noah.

Even after the first restoration, humankind kept sinning, grumbling, complaining and continuously going against the will of God. Evil has taken roots in human hearts, and so God made a law that would guide the people, gave it to Moses at Mount Sinai and instructed him to read to the people. The Ten Commandments would be a complete guide for a godly-driven life for every person in Israel.

The way was never an easy thing to follow, and God saw that this was a difficult thing for humankind for sure. He knew that the only thing that humankind needed was love and grace, and this would happen in no any other way except through salvation. Moses told the people that God would bring a savior who would be their shepherd forever, and then he was no more.

Samson was quite a man of Godly strength, and though he messed up by mixing his mission with pleasures of the woman Delilah, God used him to protect His people. At this time, God restored peace to the His children, and took life away from those who made the world difficult for His children at the time. From that time henceforth, God has used David, Ezekiel, Daniel, Jeremiah and other prophets to bring restoration to the world.

His birth, death and resurrection were all foretold events in Biblical history. Moses, David, Joel, Daniel and John the Baptist spoke about him and everything they said came to pass. His birth, life, betrayal, death and resurrection were all foretold. And when He rose from the dead, there was a joyous restoration of the broke relationship between God and humankind.

Today, Christians are waiting for the big day; the day when they will be taken from the earth to spend eternity with God n the Kingdom of heaven. The bible says it is soon, but no one knows the time or the season. The only thing anyone knows is that God and humankind are now friends.
