The Hidden Key to True Freedom

If Hebrews isn’t one of your favorite books of the Bible, then you might be missing a key aspect of grace. The same goes for Romans and Galatians. These three books are fundamental to grasping the essence of the New Covenant.

Hebrews was originally written for Jewish believers who had a tendency of trying to blend Old Testament performance-based laws with the freedom in Christ the New Covenant offers. Sad to say, the vast majority of Christians today fall into the same trap. They might profess that they’re living under New Covenant grace, but in reality, they’re mixing in Old Testament legalism. The truth is, these two covenants cannot be mixed. The Old Testament is awesome in so many ways and points us to Jesus, but it was incomplete.

But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

Hebrews 8:6–7

I spend a lot of time reading the Old Testament, and I’m not suggesting we get rid it. But I’m living under the New Covenant, and I am not under the curse and the punishment of the Old Testament Law.

The Ultimate Upgrade: A Better Covenant

There is a huge difference between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant, yet the average Christian fails to understand the difference and misses out on living in the victory and freedom that Jesus purchased for us. The old system of animal sacrifice was only a temporary, imperfect way to deal with sin. Out of love, God the Father sent His only Son, Jesus, into the world and established a new covenant that would resolve the problem of sin once and for all.
