Elements of Salvation (4)

 The Christian Era

"I will raise to them a prophet out of the brothers of them just as thee and I will give the word of Me in the mouth of Him, and He shall speak to them as I shall command to Him." (Deuteronomy 18:18) "And Mouses indeed is faithful in the whole house of Him as servant into a witness of the things which we will be speaking, but Christ as a son on the house of Him where we ourselves are a house if ... " (Hebrews 3:5-6)

"... He is a Mediator of a better covenant which has been given by law on better promises. For if that first was blameless, a second would not have sought a place. For blaming them He says: Behold days are coming, says the Lord, and I will complete on the house of Israel and on the house of Ioudas a new covenant, not according to the covenant which I made with the fathers of them in the day of the hand of them having taken hold of Me to lead them out of the land of Egypt because they themselves remained not in the covenant of Me, and I neglected them ... " (Hebrews 8:6-9)

"In the time for Him to say new He has made the first old; and the thing being made old and growing old is near disappearance." (Hebrews 8:13)

"... Thou willed not sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and concerning sin nor Thou pleasured ... Behold I have come to do the will of Thee." He takes up the first in order that He could establish the second. (Hebrews 10:8-9)

In the Old Covenant, "... every priest indeed has stood every day ministering and often offering the same sacrifices which are never able to take away sins, but this who has offered one sacrifice on behalf of sins into eternity sat in the right of God." (Hebrews 10:11-12)

The New Covenant is the one binding on us in the Christian Era. The Old Covenant was given to the Israelites - the chosen people of God. Other nations had no access to God. God is the Potter and we are the clay. The clay does not have the authority to question the potter whatever he does. (Romans 9:20-21) God is faithful and He will do what He said - His Word is the Holy Bible. If we want to be saved from the wrath of God, we MUST obey God.
