Hebrews 8

God cut a new covenant with us through Christ. The Old was not as good as what we receive in Jesus. Why would anyone want the old way when the new is better?

Better is a key word in Hebrews. A better path to righteousness , a better high priest, a better way of living … New Testament Christianity is BETTER. Why then would anyone want to live in a legal system of what you can do and what you can’t do? Pride? Attaining more spirituality through what WE can do?

An old car .. ’55 Chevy or similar … is not as good a car as a new one. Why do we like the old Chevy? It gives us ownership pride. We like to be seen in it. It only comes out in perfect weather.

The New Covenant is built to take all conditions, not just the perfect scenario.

Just give me Jesus.
