Our Eternal Covenant with God in Christ


Jeremiah 50:4-5, 20, 34  
4 “In those days and in that time,” says the Lord, “The children of Israel shall come,They and the children of Judah together; With continual weeping they shall come, And seek the Lord their God.  5 They shall ask the way to Zion, With their faces toward it, saying, ‘Come and let us join ourselves to the Lord In a perpetual covenant That will not be forgotten.’   20 In those days and in that time,” says the Lord, “The iniquity of Israel shall be sought, but there shall be none; And the sins of Judah, but they shall not be found; For I will pardon those whom I preserve.   34 Their Redeemer is strong; The Lord of hosts is His name. He will thoroughly plead their case,

Our Redeemer is strong; He pleads our case to be our substitutionary advocate, seeing our tears of repentance and coming to the new covenant in Christ so God sees our sin no more.  What mercy and grace to set us free forever!  So we magnify His name in worship today together as everyday before Him.   This is our eternal covenant made by God for us in Christ!
