I am on track. You are out of context.

How would one know, since you haven't given any indication you know what Hebrews is all about?

You won’t get Zechariah right until you can demonstrate you got Hebrews right, and you understand what the apostles were teaching about the OT prophecies and how they all applied to Christ.

Lots of hand waving and no substance.

Christ was the fulfillment of the Old Testament Law. The New Covenant was an everlasting covenant, much like the promises to Abraham. In Jeremiah the New Covenant was made to the JEWS. We know that the New Covenant did not obliterate the old promises towards the Jews for God’s promises are sure and the prophecies towards Israel are being fulfilled to this day. We know in Zechariah that there will be a day when the remnant of national Israel accepts Christ. During that same time there will be a sacrificial system in the Temple. We were grafted in. We did not obliterate the promises to God’s chosen Israelites as you know full well as well from the dispensational thread. Beyond that, I do not have to answer you for I have already dealt with this subject at length in other threads. I know speaking with you about it is ‘spinning my wheels’ and have much better things to do with my time. You will believe what you believe and I believe what I believe and we aren’t changing each other’s minds, so why not leave it at that? The discussion originally was over blessing verses the impartation of grace during the ordinances. I answered those questions in full and have shown where I believe your view to be problematic. Either grace is a gift exclusive of ANY human works or it isn’t.
