"Every WORD in the Bible after the cross is Jesus speaking.

Jesus said ALL His words before the cross were NOT His words, but the Fathers.

The Father is NOT the author of the NEW Covenant.

WHAT IS THE NEW CONENANT AND WHAT IS THE OLD



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear William:

As mentioned in my answer to your other post, these ideas are stupid. You need to stop listening to the people who are giving you these ideas.

Every Word after the Cross is Jesus speaking? Well the Bible says different. St. Paul was speaking in his epistles, Matthew was speaking in the Gospel of Matthew. The Bible is inspired by God, but the actual words used were the men whom God called to write the Biblical texts.

The "Father" and "Jesus" are one, according to the Bible. There is ONE God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and God is the author of the New Covenant.

The Old Covenant was actually five Covenants between God and...

1) Adam
2) Noah
3) Abraham
4) Moses
5) David

The New Covenant is the sixth covenant in God's Salvation Plan. The New Covenant is the Covenant with Jesus Christ.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
