The Greater Covenant

Jesus Christ is the foundation of the greater covenant, fulfilling and surpassing the old covenant given through Moses. Unlike the old covenant, which relied on repeated sacrifices and adherence to the law, Jesus established a new and eternal covenant through His perfect sacrifice on the cross. His death and resurrection provide forgiveness of sins and direct access to God, writing His laws on the hearts of believers rather than on tablets of stone. This greater covenant is built on grace, offering eternal life and a restored relationship with God to all who place their faith in Him.

Hebrews 7:22-24

22 Through this oath Jesus became the guarantor of a better covenant. 23 And the former priests were numerous because they were hindered from serving because of death. 24 But He, because He lives forever, has an everlasting priesthood.
