But IF: the Consequence of broken promise – Will the LORD not surely do -2
So what! Did you HEAR the consequences?

What is the consequence of broken promise? WE seldom consider CLEAR consequences. Whether Old Testament Commandment, warning of a Prophet or New Testament Command of the Lord Christ Jesus, SO OFTEN WE do not have ‘ears to hear’ the promised consequence of disobedience to God.

DO YOU REMEMBER when someone PROMISED to do something for you?

And THEY broke their promise?

What IF WE break our promise to God?

Followers of the LORD make many Covenants with God. New and Old Testaments both provide us with Scriptural assurance of blessings. BUT IF we abandon our PROMISE to GOD, clear consequences await us. (Curse, rather than Blessing.)

Christians should not expect grace without genuine repentance for our sin against God.

Yesterday I took us back to hear two earlier themes.

Below you may read the next post of this New Testament series from earlier this year from the Gospel of John.

(Make sure you have ears to hear.)

Old Testament Promises: Blessing OR the Consequence of Curse

Earlier in our Summer Scriptural Reruns I also pointed us back to this important look at the Law from Deuteronomy in D.C. al Coda – Deuteronomy – But IF...

‘Will the LORD not surely do what He has said?’ focused on Jesus’ Command from the Gospel of John in PART 1. TODAY we return to OLD TESTAMENT promises. These Scriptures build a firm foundation and confidence in what GOD has really said.

But IF you break it.. What is the consequence of broken promise?

Again, I point us to a Scripture which connects our theme: hearing the consequence of a broken promise.

“This is what God has said, ‘Why do you break the commandments of the LORD and do not prosper?
Because you have abandoned the LORD,
He has also abandoned you.’”
2 Chronicles 24:20b NASB20

Scriptures

Deuteronomy 30

Will the LORD not surely do what He has said? – 1
Scripture is what He has said

If you have been following this summer’s series of Doctrinal posts on talkofJESUS.COM you have just read about Sola Scripture, that is: Only Scripture. And IF you believe ‘what is written’ then you know that both blessings and curses are conditional.

Scripture also speaks for the LORD! God commands. We must listen and obey.

Jesus COMMANDS His followers and they encourage us in the Gospel what WE must do. THEREFORE Christians must believe that JESUS will do what HE has said.

Although this scripture was not part of many which could have been a part of the theme of this 3-part series, it is its theme:

Then the Spirit of God covered Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada the priest like clothing; and he stood above the people and said to them,
“This is what God has said,
‘Why do you break the commandments of the LORD and do not prosper? Because you have abandoned the LORD, He has also abandoned you.’”
2 Chronicles 24:20 NASB20
- God is faithful. So why would you abandon your Scripture faith?
The Gospel proclaims that JESUS IS LORD!

We must not question the Lord Jesus’ intentions for us.

His Command is clear: in the Good News of a New Testament our Lord Jesus calls the church to ‘a NEW Commandment.’

A Commandment of Scripture worth repeating

Earlier this year I linked this post to my series on the Gospel of John, but in case you missed it this post from seven years ago should command your attention. For after all, Jesus IS GOD and Scripture is God’s word.

Seven Seals! and Seven Trumpets!
We have all heard about the Great Apocalypse of THE END! Scripture reveals this fulfillment in many places: Daniel, Matthew, Revelation & other Books from Scripture. Seven angels, seven seals, seven trumpets and consequently seven bowls of God’s wrath!

Listen & read on..
```
As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the talmidim came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?”
Matthew 24 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Yeshua answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.

Seven Trumpets!

When a trumpet is blown, hear!

(All you inhabitants of the world.. when a signal is raised on the mountains, look!)
