  1. A BETTER COVENANT

  2. A BETTER COVENANT INTRODUCTION Why is it that we live under a better covenant than the Law of Moses? Why was there a need for another dispensation? Hebrews chapter 8 answers these questions. The new covenant is better because it is: 1. Ministered by a Superior High Priest. 2. Ministered in a Better Place. 3. Founded on Better Promises.

  3. A BETTER COVENANT A SUPERIOR HIGH PRIEST Jesus is superior in: 1. His moral adequacy (8:1). 2. His finished work (8:1). 3. His enthronement (8:1). 4. His supreme exaltation (8:1,2).

  4. A BETTER COVENANT JESUS SERVES IN A BETTER PLACE How do we know that Jesus is ministering in a sanctuary? Has anyone ever seen Him at work? The answers are: 1. The logical answer (8:3). 2. The genealogical answer (8:4). 3. The typological answer (8:5).

  5. A BETTER COVENANT FOUNDED ON BETTER PROMISES The rest of Heb. 8 is a quotation from Jer. 31:31-34. Four major promises are found in the text. The promise of: 1. God’s grace (8:7-9). 2. Eternal change (8:10). 3. Forgiveness for all (8:11,12). 4. An eternal blessing (8:13).

  6. A BETTER COVENANT CONCLUSION The new covenant is better for many reasons: 1. A new, superior high priest in Jesus. 2. A new, superior sanctuary in which Christ ministers for us. 3. A new, superior covenant based on better, eternal promises. Obeying Jesus as Lord and Savior brings one into this covenant (the grace of God).
