More explanation about New Covenant Literal Application

The New Covenant Literal Application Code (NCLA) is an interpretive guide used by the authors to indicate which person categories a mitzvah applies to, and at what level of literal compliance.

It combines person categories such as Jewish, K'rov Yisrael, and Gentile, together with male/female distinctions and an application level such as mandated, recommended, optional, or prohibited.

This code reflects the authors' interpretive opinion and is provided for prayerful consideration. On this page, the technical code is summarized into plain language to help new readers understand it more easily.

Detailed codes: GFm - Gentile female, mandated | GMm - Gentile male, mandated | JFm - Jewish female, mandated | JMm - Jewish male, mandated | KFm - K'rovat Yisrael female, mandated | KMm - K'rov Yisrael male, mandated

Commentary

Rabbi Michael Rudolph

Receiving and following God and Yeshua are related but different. “Receiving” is believing in them and internalizing what they have to say to us through the Bible and the Holy Spirit. “Following” is subordinating our will to theirs and allowing them to lead us in what we have received.

One man's life changed the course of history for billions of people across the globe. He is both revered and reviled, famed and feared and you know who he is without a single mention of his name.

Testimonies

Moving Works - The Good Father

Yearning for the Bohemian life, Ruda turns to alcohol to escape the responsibilities of being a husband and father. Before long, his entire world falls apart, leaving him to choose between killing himself or surrendering to the person he’s rejected his entire life.
