    The days are coming when God will make a new covenant with . . . Israel and . . . Judah, not like the law, but a covenant of grace. Men will be given a new moral nature, and knowledge of the Lord will be universal (See Heb_8:8-13; Heb_10:15-17).

    God made the New Covenant primarily with Israel and Judah (v. 31). Unlike the Mosaic Law, it was unconditional. It emphasized what God will do, not what man must do; notice the occurrences of "I will" in verses 33, 34. Jesus is the Mediator of the New Covenant because it is through Him that its blessings are secured (Heb_9:15). The Covenant was ratified by His blood (Luk_22:20). It will not become effective for Israel as a nation until Christ's Second Coming. In the meantime, however, individual believers enjoy some of its benefits; e.g., their obedience is motivated by grace, not law; God is their God and they are His people; God no longer remembers their sins and iniquities. Universal knowledge of the Lord (v. 34a) awaits the Millennium.

    I think it means that no person of Israel will be without knowledge of God's new covenant with Israel. They will feel it, even in their hearts.

    Gen 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

    Gen 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an EVERLASTING COVENANT, to be a Father unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

    Hbr 8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith Yahweh; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a Father, and they shall be to me a people:

    Hbr 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahweh: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

    Gen 26:4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

    Same covenant as in the beginning!

    Revelation 22:14—

    Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

    The world practices the ways of Satan. Satan showed to Adam and Eve a lip service of love while teaching them the Laws of Yahweh were done away. That is the very thing the preachers of this world teach today.

    Your Holy Scriptures teach that all of the Laws must be kept and that breaking any one of them is sin (Yaaqob 2:10-11). Yahshua taught that man must live by every Word of Yahweh.

    Mattithyah 4:4—

    But He answered, and said; It is written: Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yahweh.

    Rather than teaching love for Yahweh and for man, Satan's preachers openly teach murder by condoning the practice of war and allowing the practice of abortion. Can this in any way be called love? Satan's preachers also openly reject the fourth Commandment, the Sabbath, which teaches obedience to Yahweh.

    Exodus 20:8-11—

    8 Remember The Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy.

    9 Six days you shall labor and do all your Work,

    10 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of Yahweh your Heavenly Father. In it you shall not do your own work: you, nor your wife, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor the stranger who dwells within your gates.

    11 For in six days Yahweh made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them; and rested the seventh day. Therefore, Yahweh blessed The Sabbath Day, and hallowed it; Yahweh made The Sabbath Day Holy.

    Sunday is not the seventh day. Find the word Saturday in any dictionary and you will see it is the seventh day. For more information about the Sabbath of Yahweh, write for our booklet, Which Day Is The Sabbath Of The New Testament? and request the sermon by Overseer Yisrayl Hawkins dated 3-25-06.

    Satan's preachers also openly reject the Feasts of Yahweh which neither our Savior nor His apostles rejected. Yahshua and His apostles kept the Feasts of Yahweh and taught others to keep Yahweh's Feasts.

    I Corinthians 5:8—

    Therefore, let us keep the Feast...

    You will not hear Satan's preachers saying that today. Why? Because the Feasts of Yahweh teach true love, not just lip service.

    Yahweh's Feasts teach us to live together as one family, as brothers and sisters. They also teach us to share with our fellow brothers and sisters by serving them. Yahweh said the following concerning His Feasts.

    Leviticus 23:1-2—

    1 And Yahweh spoke to Mosheh, saying:

    2 Speak to the children of Israyl, and say to them; Concerning the Feasts of Yahweh, which you shall proclaim to be Holy Convocations; these are My Feasts.
