  1. Behold The Days are Here Jeremiah 31:31-34 31“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah…”

  2. Introduction • Jeremiah 30-31 is a mixture of sorrow and joy • The text emphasizes that the Old Covenant would pass away

  3. Introduction • Why was the Old Covenant to be replaced? • How does the new covenant differ? • What is the effect of this change?

  4. Why was the covenant replaced 14‘But if you do not obey Me and do not carry out all these commandments, 15if, instead, you reject My statutes, and if your soul abhors My ordinances so as not to carry out all My commandments, and so break My covenant…. Leviticus 26:14–15 (NASB95) • It was a shattered covenant

  5. Why was the covenant replaced 13When He said, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear. Hebrews 8:13 (NASB95) • It was a shattered covenant • It became an obsolete covenant

  6. Why was the covenant replaced 1For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never ... Hebrews 10:1 (NASB95) • It was a shattered covenant • It became an obsolete covenant • It was a more “physical” covenant

  7. How does the New Covenant Differ 31“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers… Jeremiah 31:31–32 (NASB95) • It was a “new” covenant • “new” – denotes the state of being different, new and superior to a previous state

  8. How does the New Covenant Differ 31“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers… Jeremiah 31:31–32 (NASB95) • With a new foundation • No longer built on physical promises • Built upon the promise of forgiveness

  9. How does the New Covenant Differ 31“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers… Jeremiah 31:31–32 (NASB95) • With a new priesthood • A perfect and unchangeable high Priest • Who entered the true holy place • With a new order of priests

  10. How does the New Covenant Differ 31“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers… Jeremiah 31:31–32 (NASB95) • With A new requirement • A spiritual basis • Entered into by faith • No longer based on the Physical

  11. The Effect of the New Covenant • Anything specific to the Levitical order has passed away • “God is spirit…” • True worship is now characterized by an offering of the heart and soul

  12. The Effect of the New Covenant • The need for worship with musical instruments has passed • instruments were tied to the Levitical Priests (2Chron 29:25-26; 1Chron 23:3-6) • In Spiritual Worship the heart becomes the instrument (Eph 5:19)

  13. The Effect of the New Covenant • the value of Sacraments have passed away • Baptism is not a sign of salvation but a condition • The Lord’s supper is a memorial not a sign • No value in “christening” “Eucharist” “last Rites” etc.
