    What Did The New Covenant Change?

    Today rather than follow the old Law Covenant, Christian's today are under the New Covenant established on the precious Blood of the Christ. We know that at the ascension of Jesus everything the Christ had set out to do on this earth was accomplished; as regards setting up the New Coventant. In prayer to his Father just prior to his ascension, he made this following remark:

    4 "I have glorified you on the earth, having finished the work you have given me to do. 5 So now you, Father, glorify me alongside yourself with the glory that I had alongside you before the world was." {John 17:4 NWT} So, now the New Covenant was fully in force, with the Old Law Covenant set aside in favor now of the New Covenant.

    Under the Old Law it was the Aaronic Priesthood that officiated at the Temple, but now a Heavenly Priesthood took the place of the Aaronic Priesthood. The Priesthood had changed along with the Old Law. As noted by Paul:

    "For since the priesthood is being changed, there comes to be of necessity a change also of the law." {Hebrews 7:12 NWT}

    Something else had also changed, because of the change in the Priesthood; that is, it's location, as well as the number of Priests involved: as John reveals to us:

    "And I saw, and, look! the Lamb standing upon the Mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads." {Revelation 14:1 NWT}

    It was no longer earthly Mount Zion, but now, Heavenly Mount Zion. This now is where the Christ was residing, directing the Congregational affairs from the invisible Heavenly Spirit Realm.

    So, the Law had Changed! The Priesthood had Changed! Earthly Mount Zion now changed to Heavenly Mount Zion. As might be expected, earthly Jerusalem changed to heavenly New Jerusalem. Which John also reports on:

    "‘The one that conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out [from it] anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which descends out of heaven from my God, and that new name of mine. 13 Let the one who has an ear hear what the spirit says to the congregations." {Revelation 3:12 NWT} Notice now they had to be atuned to the Spirit Realm, and hear what the Spirit said to the congregations. From which source all of their teachings would now come from, because that is where their Teacher was now in control of the Holy Spirit, the Teaching instrument. Acts 2:33

    Now their approach to worship had also changed as Paul will show us, in the following:

    "For YOU have not approached that which can be felt and which has been set aflame with fire, and a dark cloud and thick darkness and a tempest, 19 and the blare of a trumpet and the voice of words; on hearing which voice the people implored that no word should be added to them. 20 For the command was not bearable to them: "And if a beast touches the mountain, it must be stoned." 21 Also, the display was so fearsome that Moses said: "I am fearful and trembling." 22 But YOU have approached a Mount Zion and a city of [the] living God, heavenly Jerusalem, and myriads of angels, 23 in general assembly, and the congregation of the firstborn who have been enrolled in the heavens, and God the Judge of all, and the spiritual lives of righteous ones who have been made perfect, 24 and Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and the blood of sprinkling, which speaks in a better way than Abel’s [blood]." {Hebrews 12:18-24 NWT}

    So! The New Approach to Worship had changed over from earthly Mount Zion to Heavenly Mount Zion, the City of the Living God, Heavenly Jerusalem. Now it was as Paul told us:

    25 "Now this Ha´gar means Si´nai, a mountain in Arabia, and she corresponds with the Jerusalem today, for she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother." {Galatians 5:25,26 NWT}

    Jehovah's entire arrangemment of things reverted over to the Invisible Heavens. The Heavenly Spirit Realm. This now was where Jehovah's Organization now was. No! No visible Organization on this earth as claimed by the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses. That is a blatant lie! They are a lie! A falsehood if ever there was one. I have have made that crystal clear.

    The New Covenant changed Jehovah's earthly Organization over to a Heavenly Organization. No longer on earth, because the Christ is no longer on earth!

    Do you hear what the Spirit says to the remaining ones of the seed of the Woman? You will if you're doing the work of witnessing to Jesus. Are you one of the remaining ones of that seed? Do you observe the commandments of God?

    Those are the only ones who will hear what the Spirit says to them. Reason being they are the only ones the Spirit is speaking to today. That's the main reason satan is waging War with only them, because they know how to expose his lying Religious Organization Babylon The Great. The Mother of the Harlots and disgusting things of the earth. The entire empire of Religious Christendom. Jehovah views as a great Harlot.

    17 "And the dragon grew wrathful at the woman, and went off to wage war withthe remaining ones of her seed, who observe the commandments of God and have the work of bearing witness to Jesus." {Revelation 12:17 NWT}

    "Let the one who has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the congregations," or, "the remaining ones of her seed." How's you're hearing? Do you have that listening ear? Is the Spirit even speaking to you? It will if you're one of the seed of the Heavenly Woman. If not! Tough luck! You lose!

    Sum it all up! The New Covenant changed Jehovah's earthly Organization, to Heavenly New Jerusalem. The City of the living God. The Jerusalem above! Guided and directed by the Son of God Jesus Christ. Wannabe

    I don't get wannabe's posts. Ever. Wall of text. Sorry wannabe, but good effort I'm sure. For what I don't know.

    Mad Sweeney did a perfect job of summing it all up for me though, thanks!
