I hope you're prepared to take up your "defunct old testament ritual" objections with the "Prince" who'll be offering sacrifices in the millennial temple as revealed to Ezekiel. He might not set a place for you at the table.

Given the fact that He's the second person of the Triune God, He can do whatever it is that pleases Him, including the creation of a new and everlasting convenant - which IMO is the only hope for the insane asylum known as the Middle East, both in a spiritual and temporal sense.

Putting religion aside for a moment, does anyone believe that this sort of nonsense (from both sides) is productive or logical?

Too bad the "old testament" doesn't say a word about this unless one already accepts the "new testament" right off the bat and allegorizes the prophecies based on his preconceptions.

BTW, haven't you heard? G-d changed his mind again and founded a religion called islam. Then he replaced it with sikhism. And so on and so on. You are a hypocrite for insisting the Torah be temporary (when it says no such thing anywhere) and then wanting to make your "new convenant" permanent.

Leave our `Avodah threads alone. Go study the apes you believe you were descended from.

I think it best to assert that G-d is One (echad), who is changeless, and that Messiah will elaborate upon Torah but if he is [imperfect tense] the prophet "like Moses" he cannot subvert Torah or he is no prophet. Scripture portrays the new covenant as simply the inscription of the eternal covenant of stone upon the no longer stony but enlivened hearts of the "children of the living G-d"

God gave TWO covanents of forgiveness, one of sacrifice and adherance to the written law, the other of grace and freedom from the fulfilled law. Choose one.
