"To Fay regarding your
post about the Old Covenant still standing"
For if there had been nothing wrong with
that first covenant, no place would have been sought for
another. But God found fault with the people and said :
“The days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new
covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah.
It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because
they did not remain faithful to my covenant, and I turned away
from them, declares the Lord.
This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel
after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their
minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and
they will be my people. No longer will they teach their
neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they
will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I
will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no
more.” Hebrews 8:7;13
