Let's talk about it.
HOW DOES A PERSON BECOME GRAFTED INTO THE NEW COVENANT?
A covenant is an agreement between God and His people. The New Covenant is not the abolition of God's Torah; it is the Torah written on the hearts and minds of those who enter the covenant. The covenant itself is not the law—the law is the terms of the covenant. All must be grafted in.
Many claim to be grafted in, yet continue rejecting and living contrary to God's commandments. Scripture teaches that God gives His Spirit to those who obey Him:
"And we are His witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey Him." (Acts 5:32)
The New Covenant contains God's instructions, His Torah. Those who enter it accept His ways and submit to His authority. The sacrificial system finds its fulfillment in Messiah's sacrifice, but God's righteous standards remain.
Being grafted in is not merely saying you believe. It is repentance, faith, obedience, and covenant faithfulness. God's people are identified by their love for Him and their desire to keep His commandments.
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
The question is not, "Do I profess faith?" The question is, "Have I entered into covenant with God and accepted His instructions as the standard for my life?"
Faith without obedience is empty. The Spirit is given to those who obey God.
