Jesus Christ
A Testament is a solemn covenant. The gospel is the Lords Testament (covenant) of salvation. It is an agreement between God and his people in which God makes certain promises and requires certain behaviour from them in return
About 700 hundred years earlier Isaiah prophesied that a virgin would give birth to a baby who would save his people. He also told the trial of Jesus . That prophecy has been completely-fulfilled. However, Isaiah made many other prophecies, some of which have been only partially-fulfilled and others not at all.
People break promises to people that they don't know very well.
The first reading in Catholic and many Protestant churches is traditionally chosen from the Old Testament to tell of God's promises and his preparation of his people for the coming of the Messiah (his Son).The Old Testament reading harmonizes with the Gospel reading and reveals the continuity between Israel and Jesus who comes not to replace,but to fulfill the scripture.
1. Why did you go to the mental institution? 2. How many people did you kill? 3. What do you think about your vilification by Canada? 4. Should Western Canadians demand the promises made by Canada be fulfilled?
Promises should be kept.If you want to you can add by one. But this is not necessary.Using 'one' is a bit formal it would be better to use 'people'.Promises should be kept by people.
The central saving action of the Old Testament is considered to be the covenant between God and the Israelites, where God promises to be their God and they promise to be His people. This covenant forms the basis of their relationship and sets the stage for salvation history as God works to redeem and deliver his people.
The New Testament books were all written after Christ's resurrection. It is a separate testament from the Old Testament. We can see looking back all the many hints given in the Old Testament of a new and better testament to come, but hind sight is 20 20, as it was in large part hidden from the people living in the time of the Old Testament. All of the books of the Old Testament were written 400 years before Christ and earlier. The New Testament, as the Old Testament are both completely inspired by God.
Promises varied by treaty. Implicit promises were not to massacre or attack, others included land and money.

In the Roman Catholic Mass, the priest reads the Gospel which is taken from Matthew, Mark, Luke or John in the New Testament part of the Bible. Before that, lectors read twice (once on weekdays) and it's from any book in the Old Testament, often Isaiah or the Psalms. To Christians, Jesus is the fulfillment of the promises God made to his people in the Old Testament through prophecies.
