THE NEW COVENANT

COVENANT IS A CONTRACT OR AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN TWO
PARTIES. IN THIS CASE, THE COVENANT IS BEWTEEN GOD AND
PEOPLE An OLD COVENANT WAS GIVEN TO MOSES WHEN HE WENT
UP TO MOUNT SINAI. THIS IS CALLED THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
WHEN JESUS CAME TO EARTH, HE ESTABLISHED A BETTER AND
MORE SUPERIOR COVENANT. SO, WE HAD THE OLD COVENANT
BEFORE JESUS AND AFTER JESUS CAME, WE NOW HAVE THE NEW
COVENANT. THE OLD COVENANT WAS VERY HARD TO KEEP IT
LACKED THE POWER OR MEANS TO ENABLE PEOPLE TO ACTUALLY
KEEP THEM. THE OLD COVENANTS ARE LAWS THAT WE WERE
UNABLE TO KEEP WHEREAS THE NEW COVENANT IS A COVENANT OF
GRACE AND MERCY. THE NEW COVENANT WAS INSTITUTED AT THE
LAST SUPPER, BUT STARTED AFTER THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST,
FOR IT WAS SEALED BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS PAYING THE
PRICE FOR THE COMPLETE REMISSION OF SINS FOR ALL WHO
BELIEVE IN HIM. The NEW COVENANT IS A PROMISE THAT GOD
MAKES WITH MANKIND THAT HE WILL FORGIVE SIN AND RESTORE
FELLOWSHIP WITH THOSE WHOSE HEARTS BELIEVE IN HIS SON JESUS
AND ARE TURNED TOWARD HIM.
