Hebrews 8:6-13 (part 2) The Better New Covenant

Redeemer Presbyterian Church

Hebrews 8:6 But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. I. The new covenant is better than the old covenant. II. The old covenant is the covenant with Israel and Moses as Mediator. III. The old covenant wasn't faultless. IV. the old covenant had faults that invited the longing for a second covenant. V. The fault wasn’t so much with the covenant itself, but with the people, v8. VI. The old covenant was more exclusive, and the new covenant is far more inclusive. VII. The old covenant is obsolete but the new covenant endures, v13.
