The Davidic Covenant.

Sunday, March 16, 2008

The Abrahamic covenant emphasizes the race for client nation Israel, and the Palestinian covenant emphasizes and reiterates the land for client nation Israel.

The third covenant, the next of Israel’s great unconditional or unilateral covenants is known as the Davidic covenant, which emphasizes the seed for client nation Israel.

a) The Jewish race - Abrahamic covenant
b) The land for Israel - Palestinian covenant
c) The promise seed - or client nation Israel

The Davidic Covenant refers to God’s promises to David through Nathan the prophet, 2Sa 7;
1CH 17:11-14; 2CH 6:16.

This is an unconditional covenant made between God and David through which God promises David and Israel that the Messiah (Jesus Christ) would come from the lineage of David and the tribe of Judah and would establish a kingdom that would endure forever.

JOH 14:27 “My Peace I give unto you; It’s a peace that the world cannot give.”

JOH 14:2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

In the Al Maidah (The Table) - Believers (Muslims), take neither Jews nor Christians to be your friends: they are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship Shall become one of their number, and God does not guide (those Jewish and Christian called “wrong-doers”) 5:51-5:74.

In spite of the fact that they teach that the Jews are evil-doers in the Al Maidah 5:57, God promises that He will build them a house or a dwelling place.

In spite of the fact that the Koran, Surah 2:140, says that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and the Tribes of Israel were not Jews or believers.

ACT 13:22 - “I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My heart, who will do ALL My will.”

The Davidic Covenant is unconditional because God does not place any conditions of obedience upon its fulfillment.

The surety of the promises made rests solely on God’s faithfulness and does not depend at all on David or Israel’s obedience.

1. God reaffirms the promise of the land that He made in the first two covenants with Israel (The Abrahamic and Mosaic Covenants), 2SA 7:10.

COL 1:13 He delivered you us from the kingdom of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son,

ISA 29:24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.

One way or the other He will accomplish His will to become conformed to the image of His Son, ROM 8:29.

EXO 14:13 Moses said to the people, “Do not fear! Stand by and see the deliverance of the Lord which He will ACCOMPLISH for you today;”

PSA 57:2 I will call to God Most High, To God who accomplishes all things for me.
PSA 138:8 David said, “The Lord will accomplish what concerns me;”
JOH 17:4 “I glorified Thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which Thou hast given Me to do.”
