| Hebrews 8: |
|
| |
10 " For this is the
covenant that I will make with the house of Israel After those days,
says the Lord: I will put My laws into their minds, And I will write
them upon their hearts. And I will be their God, And they shall be My
people. |
| |
11 " And they shall not
teach everyone his fellow citizen, And everyone his brother, saying,
'Know the Lord,' For all shall know Me, From the least to the greatest
of them. |
| |
12 " For I will be
merciful to their iniquities, And I will remember their sins no
more." |
| |
13 When He said, "A new
covenant," He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming
obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear. |
| Hebrews 9: |
|
| |
13 For if the blood of goats
and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been
defiled, sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, |
| |
14 how much more will the
blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without
blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the
living God? |
| |
15 And for this reason He is
the mediator of a new covenant, in order that since a death has taken
place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under
the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise
of the eternal inheritance. |
| |
16 For where a covenant is,
there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it. |
| |
17 For a covenant is valid
only when men are dead, for it is never in force while the one who made
it lives. |
| Hebrews 10: |
|
| |
1 For the Law, since it has
only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of
things, can never by the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer
continually, make perfect those who draw near. |
| |
2 Otherwise, would they not
have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been
cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins? |
| |
3 But in those sacrifices
there is a reminder of sins year by year. |
| |
4 For it is impossible for the
blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. |
| |
8 After saying above, "
Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for
sin Thou hast not desired, nor hast Thou taken pleasure in them"
(which are offered according to the Law), |
| |
9 then He said, " Behold,
I have come to do Thy will." He takes away the first in order to
establish the second. |
| |
10 By this will we have been
sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for
all. |
| Acts 13: |
|
| |
38 "Therefore let it be
known to you, brethren, that through Him forgiveness of sins is
proclaimed to you, |
| |
39 and through Him everyone
who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be freed
through the Law of Moses. |
| Colossians 2: |
|
| |
14 having canceled out the
certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us and which was
hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to
the cross. |
| |
15 When He had disarmed the
rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having
triumphed over them through Him. |
| |
16 Therefore let no one act as
your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a
new moon or a Sabbath day-- |
| |
17 things which are a mere
shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ. |
| Galatians 3: |
|
| |
24 Therefore the Law has
become our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we may be justified by
faith. |
| |
25 But now that faith has
come, we are no longer under a tutor. |
| 2 Corinthians 3: |
|
| |
6 who also made us adequate as
servants of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit; for
the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. |
| |
7 But if the ministry of
death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons
of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the
glory of his face, fading as it was, |
| |
8 how shall the ministry of
the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? |
| |
9 For if the ministry of
condemnation has glory, much more does the ministry of righteousness
abound in glory. |
| |
10 For indeed what had glory,
in this case has no glory on account of the glory that surpasses it. |
| |
11 For if that which fades
away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory. |
| |
12 Having therefore such a
hope, we use great boldness in our speech, |
| |
13 and are not as Moses, who
used to put a veil over his face that the sons of Israel might not look
intently at the end of what was fading away. |
| |
14 But their minds were hardened; for until this very
day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains un-lifted,
because it is removed in Christ. |
