Views on New Covenant Fulfillment Explanation School & Scholars Problems Restated Mosaic No New Covenant Critical: –Couturier –Duhm –Schmidt –Potter 1. OC/NC distinctions in text ignored 2. OC=conditional, NC=unconditional 3. OC=temporal, NC=eternal 4. OC=external, NC=internal 5. OC=no enablement, NC=enablement 6. NC=peace, prosperity, sanctuary, Spirit (parallel passages) Church Alone No Israel Participation Amillennial/ Postmillennial: –Allis –Cox –Smick –Boettner 1. Ignores OT data by equating Israel & the Church 2. NC introduced ≠ fulfilled to Israel 3. Present need to know YHWH (we still need to obey the Great Commission) 4. AD 70 Jerusalem vs. Jer. 31:40 166d Views on New Covenant Fulfillment

Views on New Covenant Fulfillment Explanation School & Scholars Problems Israel Alone No Church Participation Misc/Classical Dispensational: –Darby – Thompson –von Rad 1. Ignores NT data –Christ's Last Supper words –Paul's statements –Hebrews application to Church 2. Ignores present work of Spirit Two New Covenants NC for Israel + NC for Church Early 1900s Dispensational: –Chafer –Walvoord (old) –Ryrie (old) 1. Same terminology for OT & NT NCs 2. Israel/Church distinction too sharp 3. Basis of forgiveness the same 4. If 2 NCs then no OC for Church 5. Church doesn’t possess Israel's promises 166d Views on New Covenant Fulfillment

My View on New Covenant Fulfillment Explanation School & Scholars Problems Church Participation Primarily for Israel Secondarily for the Church Misc/Present Dispensational: –Keil –Lemke –Bright –Scofield –Walvoord (DTS) –Ryrie (DTS) –Archer (TEDS) –Kaiser (TEDS) Support: 1. Primary fulfillment is future–Rom 11 2. Deals with both OT & NT data 3. Forgiveness & the Spirit are blessings experienced now 4. NC has new law 5. Rebuttals to above views 166d My View on New Covenant Fulfillment
