Step 2: Covenant Restoration

The God of Justice
God is the supreme judge. Only He has the power to forgive sins. The shed blood of Jesus*, the cross, and the juice or crackers of the communion emblems do not have power to forgive sins. Only the sovereign will of God and His justice can forgive sins. You cannot avoid having a forgiveness conversation with God by pleading blood, taking Communion, or wearing cross jewelry or tattoos. And there is no automatic forgiveness clause in the covenant agreement. Sorry, but God’s plan doesn’t work that way. God has wrath towards rebellion and God has mercy for the blameless and repentant. God can overturn a jury’s guilty findings. God can send the criminal to prison.

If you are not in covenant relationship with God, you forfeit His provision and protection and are promised to receive His eternal wrath in hell. Though, if you have promised on oath for God to be your only God, but have broken that covenant through sin, you have access to God in prayer to have a forgiveness conversation. *The shed blood of Jesus on the cross provided for you to have covenant restoration conversation with God without a blood sacrifice or a priest to intercede. The Old covenant atonement protocols were no longer required because Jesus (God in flesh) was the final priest (in the priestly lineage) and the final blood sacrifice. It’s that way because God ordained it. You don’t get to change it. Sins are NOT automatically forgiven

The God of the Covenant
It’s important that you know who God is. God is not 1/3 of an authority. He is the sole authority over heaven and earth, life and death, eternal punishment and reward. Jesus is God. Jesus is not the Son of God. Before you go and get your Scriptures to quote to me about Jesus being the Son of God, you should realize that the Son of God title was for when God, who is an invisible Spirit, was walking visibly on earth in a flesh and blood biological Son of Man suit. That “Son of God” label was specifically to denote when God took on flesh. There is not a second Spirit of God sitting next to the first Spirit of God on a throne in heaven. Oh how I wish that more pastors understood this because they are using wrong terminology that denies that Jesus is God.

Previously on 1/9/25, I posted four information sheets on “The God of the Covenant” (link to blog post: https://therogueprophet.com/2025/01/09/church-assessments-1-9-25/). If you have any questions about who Jesus is, please study the Scriptures on these pages with God present. (Just ask God to silence the enemy and ask God to help you understand this.) Nobody wants to be responsible for blasphemy against God. Obviously, God looks at heart motives so He’s not going to cause the most severe punishment if your heart was right even if your theology was unintentionally wrong. But I guarantee this is one of the most important doctrines to get right. He might have let it go unpunished if He didn’t intentionally send His prophet with this instruction and warning. Now, you are out of excuses! Please, for your sake, study it until you are certain you know who Jesus is. (Hint: He is NOT 1/3 of a three-god godhead.)

The Covenant & Restoration (Part 1 of 3)
The covenant is central to hearing God’s voice of direction. Without the covenant and hearing God’s voice you can NOT be His disciple. You can, however, be a disciple of your pastor without being in covenant with God. You can be a disciple of worldly culture without being in covenant with God. You can study a Bible without being in covenant with God. But God requires good-standing covenant relationship and hearing His voice for true discipleship. (Making disciples means teaching people to have covenant relationship with God, not making them members of a church.)

Previously on 1/10/25, I posted information sheets on “The Covenant” (link to blog post: https://therogueprophet.com/2025/01/09/church-assessments-1-9-25/). Studying these pages for understanding will help you tremendously on Step 2, covenant-restoration conversations.
Attached are two pages (of six) from The Rogue Prophet Magazine, “The Covenant Voice of God” (pages 31-32, dated August 2024) that outline the covenant restoration process. The remaining four pages of the six will be posted on subsequent days. Pages 3-4, “A Broken Covenant Oath”, describe the false religions, occult practices, and counterfeit gods that break covenant; Pages 5-6, “Repent & Renounce” will provide the benefit of my deliverance expertise by providing specific questions for you to ask God so that you can hear directly from Him about right from wrong.
