   (In the Order Believed Written)

{When all is done and completed under the covenant works of God}11 - “They shall not teach each one their neighbor and each one their brother or sister, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least to the greatest. 12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins [hamartia - missing the mark] no more.”

     13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete, old and fading is ready to vanish away.

     9:1 - Now even the first covenant had regulations for worship and an earthly place of holiness. 2 For a tent was prepared, the first section, called the Holy Place, in which were the lampstand, the table and the bread of the Presence. 3 And behind the second curtain was a second section, which is called the Most Holy Place, 4 and in it is the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, Aaron's staff that budded, and the tablets of the (first, hamartia revealing) covenant. 5 Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. But of these things we cannot now speak in detail. {The cherubim, a likeness of an around the throne cherubim/seraphim, also called a “covering angel”? Of which Satan was one?? ..Some covering angels of animals of Eden joined the sedition? As God foresaw, and having waited patiently for first bound to occur rebel thought to occur and mature, so that all take this unavoidable journey all together at once.}

         Paul’s Letter To The Romans

3:24 - (Verse 23 - All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God) 24 aNd, are justified by his grace - as a gift. (We don’t earn life and God owe us!) A gift, that is through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. 25 Whom God put forward as a propitiation [means of appeasement or atonement - I am convinced it’s the human conscience that needs to be appeased.. due to the tricky and trickily honest psyche.. "Propitiation" or "mercy seat"  referring to the lid of the Ark of the Covenant where the high priest would sprinkle the blood of the sacrifice on the “Day” of Atonement] by his blood, the propitiation/pardon to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness! Because in his divine forbearance he has “passed over” our missing the mark. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. (Romans 11:32 - “HE has subjected all to disobedience..” Ours to learn “why”.)

     27 So then what becomes of our boasting? It’s done away with! By what kind of law? By a law of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 For we proclaim that one is justified by faith, apart from works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since God is one—who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised by faith as well. 31 Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? No! On the contrary, we uphold the law.
