Spirit and Covenant

Image
The promise of the Spirit is vital to the redemption of humanity and the Covenant of God with His people, the Assembly of Jesus Christ . The New Testament connects the “ Promise of the Spirit ” to the “ Blessings of Abraham ,” the promise that God would bless the nations through the Great Patriarch. The Spirit is the gift believers receive “ through the hearing of faith .” It is part of the covenant promises given to Abraham, and Peter connected this gift to the “ blessings ” for the nations during his sermon on the Day of Pentecost.

A promessa do Espírito é vital para a redenção da humanidade e a Aliança de Deus com seu povo, A Assembleia de Jesus Cristo . O Novo Testamento conecta a “ promessa do Espírito ” às “ bênçãos de Abraão ”, a promessa de que Deus abençoaria as nações através do grande patriarca. O Espírito é o dom que os crentes recebem “ pela escuta da fé .” Faz parte das promessas da aliança feitas a Abraão, E Pedro conectou esse dom às “ bênçãos ” para as nações durante seu sermão no dia de Pentecostes.

Com o derramamento do Espírito no dia de Pentecostes, começaram as bênçãos para todas as nações prometidas a Abraão . O Apóstolo Paulo chama o dom do Espírito de “ promessa do Pai ” que ele conecta à Aliança abraâmica. As promessas feitas a Abraão e à “ sua semente ” encontram o seu cumprimento na Nova Aliança inaugurada pela morte e ressurreição de Jesus.

With the outpouring of the Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, the blessings for all nations promised to Abraham commenced . The Apostle Paul calls the Gift of the Spirit the “ Promise of the Father ” which he links to the Abrahamic covenant. The promises to Abraham and “ his Seed ” find their fulfillment in the New Covenant inaugurated by the Death and Resurrection of Jesus.

The Messiah is identified in the  Second Psalm  as the Messianic King destined to reign over the Nations of the Earth. In the New Testament, he is anointed by the Holy Spirit at his baptism, equipping him to proclaim the “ Kingdom of God ” to Israel.

My Witnesses

The Spirit equips and emboldens the Church to bear witness to Jesus, especially concerning his sacrificial death and resurrection from the dead . At the start of the Book of Acts , Jesus told disciples they would be “ baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence ,” and they would “ receive power ” enabling them to become “ My Witnesses to the uttermost parts of the Earth .” Receiving the Spirit equipped his saints to proclaim his message and empowered them to bear witness “ with boldness ” despite opposition.
