"For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put my laws into their minds,
and write them on their hearts,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor
and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,
for they shall all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
For I will be merciful toward their iniquities,
and I will remember their sins no more.”
In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
Love it! Don't forget to read Jeremiah 10!
ReplyDeleteBut NO, the First Covenant is NOT obsolete! You're VERY incorrect about that! Yeshua said, "I did not come to abolish the law..."
ReplyDeleteHe came to show US how to live it! Gosh! Don't cut yourself out of the wonderful love of His Torah!!
I think your beef is with the writer of Hebrews - all Kim did was quote the Scripture.
DeleteJesus is the fulfillment of the law. We are redeemed from the curse of the law. If you are lukewarm He will spew you out of his mouth. You cannot mix grace and law, to do so is to be lukewarm.
