So many of us (including me) are learning HOW to interpret the new covenant in these days that we live.<br \/>\nYes, the bible clearly accounts to us that Christ paid the only and final ransom for our<br \/>\npredecessors&#8217; sin in failing to live up to the covenant, as God clearly had hoped<br \/>\nthey would. Also true, today, we still fall short of what was then etched to stone on the Mount. But, in the New Testament also, and in the time we now live,<br \/>\nChrist taught &amp; teaches us the modern perspective and crucial interpretation.<br \/>\nHe reminds, that &#8220;until heaven and earth disappear&#8221;, we must follow the prescribed law, and view that law, in the way Christ taught. In the way Christ taught as God&#8217;s messenger!<br \/>\nI have found some assistance by comparing Gospel to Gospel, as two inspiring<br \/>\nfaith leaders have helped me to do.<br \/>\nLook specifically at Hebrews 8 and Hebrews 9, compared to the Old Testament commandments as written.<br \/>\nTogether, Hebrews states that without nullifying the original covenant, we have<br \/>\nrelief from the complexity of the first, for which &#8220;we&#8221; utterly failed to live up to. Christ<br \/>\nfreed us, with finality, and reformed our perspective on the same law! That is<br \/>\nmiraculous. I thank God. Do you as well?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear friends, For Christians, so much in our life, is less critical in our learning, than understanding the Word of God as Christ wants us to.
