The Word of the Covenant

A promise of the Old Testament that was prophesied by Jeremiah was fulfilled through Jesus at the time of the first coming (Jeremiah 31:27). Out of the two kinds of seed, one was the seed of God and the other was the seed of Satan (Mt 13:24-25). After sowing the seed of God, Jesus prophesied that he will come back to harvest the seed after it is fully matured.

Also, before he ascended into heaven, Jesus promised to create a new people. (Mt 24:29-31). As a result, Jesus came back to the earth to do the work of harvest (Rv 14:14-16) according to his promise. He harvested the first fruits by sealing them with the word of God and created his new people. In this same way, as Jesus fulfilled the prophecies of the Old Testament, he is fulfilling the promises written in the New Testament (Jn 19:30, Rv 21:6). 

Just as the believers in Israel at the time of the First Coming did not believe in God’s covenant, believers of Spiritual Israel (Christian world) at the time of the Second Coming also do not believe in the word of the covenant. Why do these people not believe in God’s promises?
