But this is the new covenant I will make
with the people of Israel on that day, says the Lord:
I will put my laws in their minds,
and I will write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
You see the above passage several times in the Old Testament. God's desire has always been to have a relationship with His people. He loves us!
"13 When God speaks of a “new” covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete. It is now out of date and will soon disappear."
ReplyDeleteAnd, thank God for that! I'm currently studying the book of Exodus and all of the rules under the old covenant are mind-boggling.
Hebrews 8
ReplyDelete"... 10-12 But this is the promise that I will make to Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my teachings inside them, and I will write those teachings on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will each person teach his neighbors or his relatives by saying, ‘Know the Lord.’ All of them from the least important to the most important will all know me because I will forgive their wickedness and I will no longer hold their sins against them."
