And YET you think that the body of Christ is somehow associated with the feasts of Israel. You are schizophrenic.
ECT The NT Church began at Pentecost.

YOUR invented body of Christ is not associated with the feasts of Israel.
The true Body of Christ, His Bride, follows in the steps of Christ.
1Pe 2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
Hi , and since DIATHEKE means COVENANT !!
What DIATHEKE / COVENANT Ekklesia are you talking about and a verse !!:chuckle::chuckle:

The Bride, the Lamb's wife, is a city with twelve gates named after the twelve tribes of Israel and yet there is neither Jew nor Greek in the Body.
You are simply mistaken, because you desire to be something you are not, and cannot be. Reminds me of this: "I will be like the most High...."
It just means that the OT nation of Israel was a type of the Israel of God of the new covenant begun at Pentecost.
Men can only enter the city of God through the Israel of God, not through the Jews, now or future.
2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
2Co 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
2Co 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
2Co 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
Rom 9:8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
You need to be born again.

LA is one the most confused people of TOL. LA thinks that we need to be baptized with water even thought we are circumcised without hands.
Col 2:9-12 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. (10) And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: (11) In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: (12) Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
There ain't no water in THAT baptism, just like there ain't no flesh in that circumcision!
Act 10:37 That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
Act 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
Act 10:39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
Act 10:40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
Act 10:41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
Act 10:42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
Act 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
Act 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
Act 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Act 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
Act 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
Act 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

Made up, as usual for LA.

A totally lame response, as usual.
Eph 4:4-6 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; (5) One Lord, one faith, one baptism, (6) One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Did you expect anything less from these "Religious" folks?
