Well...Yes and no.
By that I mean, that there is no New Covenant for Gentiles.
BUT, thru the Born-again experience, becoming a 'Spiritual' Jew, any person then comes under the protection of the New Covenant promises......
Hebrews 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

| Romans 10:12; Gal 3:19-29; Col 3:11 - there is neither Jew nor Greek, for in Christ we are one. |

OK, now compare those to another Bible context......
Hebrews 8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
What do you think ?
Does it all harmonize, together ?

Hebrews is Paul explaining to the Jews who still keep the Old Covenent why it is no longer relevent but that there is a New Covenent, Christ fulfilled all the OT requirements. Also the book of Romans and Acts clearly shows this same covenent is for the Gentiles also.

I have been to the Assembly of God a couple of times, it was good fellowship. I am non-denominational myself. |

Wouldn't you rather go to a church that God approves of ?

Scriptually Mark 16:16-20 and since Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever, do not you think it would be a modern day book of Acts in ACTION.
If you are being taught the Bible it really does not matter what you call yourself or what your church calls themselves, know we all are Christians who seek that close relationship with God, with a true heart. |

I've studied the Bible a little bit.
I know which church, is God's Last day church....as God has identified it clearly.

| SarahJane wrote: | I'm sure that every individual believes that the path they are on is the correct path or they would not go the direction they go.
Is it necessary for a Christian to attend church services and if it is how does a person decide which church to attend? |
Jesus set forth the example of this practice.
He went to church on the Lord's day, the 7th day sabbath.
