The New Covenant

 “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:”

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭31:31‬ ‭KJV‬‬

This was fulfilled in Jesus when He gave the bread and wine to His disciples at the upper room and said that this is the new covenant in His Blood.  The old covenant was a shadow of good things to come.  Jesus told the two disciples walking to Emmaus “Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?”  And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself.  We are to see Jesus and the finished work of the Cross of Jesus in the shadow of the old testament but live in the reality of the new covenant which is the blood of the everlasting covenant that makes us perfect in every good work to do His will, working in us that which is wellpleasing in His sight.  Let’s live in the new covenant and see Christ & the Cross in the old!  Glory to Jesus!
