OUTLINE

NEW COVENANT

  • The topic of New Covenant is a very important teaching in the bible
     
    When a Christian does not fully understand why there is a new covenant in the Bible and why is it important in his Christian life,
  • that Christian will not be able to experience the blessings of God brought about by the New covenant.
    We are the new covenant people of God.
     
    There are two kinds of God's people in the bible
     
    - The old covenant people of God
    -  and the new covenant people of God
     
    The bible is made up of two parts, old testament and new testament.
     
    The old covenant and new covenant cannot be mixed Just like water and oil cannot mix.
     
    Many Christians use the old covenant for Christian living, that is why they did not experience the joy of that Jesus promised under the new covenant
     
    Luke 5:37-39 NKJV
    And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.
     
    Hebrews 8:13 NASB1995
    When He said, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear.
     
    The question is why did God make a new covenant?
     
  • I. Prophecy of the new testament in the old testament times
  •  
     Jeremias 31:31-‬34 ASND
    Sinabi pa ng Panginoon, “Darating ang panahon na gagawa ako ng bagong kasunduan sa mga taga-Israel at taga-Juda. At hindi ito katulad ng unang kasunduan na ginawa ko sa kanilang mga ninuno noong pinatnubayan ko sila sa paglabas sa Egipto. Kahit na akoʼy parang asawa nila, hindi nila tinupad ang una naming kasunduan.” Sinabi pa ng Panginoon, “Ito ang bagong kasunduan na gagawin ko sa mga mamamayan ng Israel pagdating ng araw na iyon: Itatanim ko sa isipan nila ang utos ko, at isusulat ko ito sa mga puso nila. Hindi na nila kailangan pang turuan ang mga kababayan o kapatid nila na kilalanin ang Panginoon. Sapagkat kikilalanin nila akong lahat, mula sa pinakamababa hanggang sa pinakadakila. Sapagkat patatawarin ko ang kasamaan nila at lilimutin ko na ang mga kasalanan nila.”
     
    II. THE FIRST COVENANT or THE OLD COVENANT
     
    Exodus 24:7-8 NKJV,  Then he [Moses] took the Book of the Covenant and read in the hearing of the people. And they[Israel] said, “All that the LORD has said we will do, and be obedient.” And Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant which the LORD has made with you according to all these words
     
    All that the LORD has said we will do, and be obedient.
     
    In old testament times, a covenant is confirmed by the shedding of blood.
     
    .” And Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant which the LORD has made with you according to all these words
     
    The first covenant, the law requires God's people in the old testament to observe and obey the law and all God's commandments 
     
    The law demands absolute perfection because the law is the sum total of God’s commandment
     
    The Law in the bible is not plural, it is singular

  • when we break one God’s commandment we break all 
     
    James 2:10,  For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.
     
    Obeyed perfectly the law - blessings
    Disobedience - curse

  • III. What is the problem why God made a new covenant?
     
    Hebrews 8:7 NLT
    If the first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need for a second covenant to replace it.
     
    Romans 7:12 NASB1995
    So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
     
    Hebreo 8:7-‬8 ASND
    Kung walang kakulangan ang unang kasunduan, hindi na sana kailangan pang palitan. Ngunit nakita ng Dios ang pagkukulang ng mga taong sumusunod sa unang kasunduan, kaya sinabi niya, “Darating ang panahon na gagawa ako ng bagong kasunduan sa mga taga-Israel at taga-Juda.
     
    Jeremias 31:32 ASND
    At hindi ito katulad ng unang kasunduan na ginawa ko sa kanilang mga ninuno noong pinatnubayan ko sila sa paglabas sa Egipto. Kahit na akoʼy parang asawa nila, hindi nila tinupad ang una naming kasunduan.”
     
    IV. What is the problem in the in the old covenant?

  •  God found fault with the people and said
  •  Hebrews 8:7-8 NIV
    7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another. 8 But God found fault with the people and said

  • Romans 7:14-15NIV 
    14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.


  • Romans 7:14-15ASND
    Alam natin na ang Kautusan ay mula sa Banal na Espiritu. Pero makamundo ako, at alipin ng kasalanan. Hindi ko maintindihan ang aking sarili. Dahil ang mabubuting bagay na gusto kong gawin ay hindi ko magawa, pero ang mga bagay na ayaw kong gawin ang siya kong ginagawa.
     
    Romans 3:23 NASB1995
    for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
     
     
    V. The  New Covenant that God will make is a better covenant 
     
    Jeremias 31:31-‬32 ASND
    Sinabi pa ng Panginoon, “Darating ang panahon na gagawa ako ng bagong kasunduan sa mga taga-Israel at taga-Juda. At hindi ito katulad ng unang kasunduan na ginawa ko sa kanilang mga ninuno noong pinatnubayan ko sila sa paglabas sa Egipto. Kahit na akoʼy parang asawa nila, hindi nila tinupad ang una naming kasunduan.”
     
    Jeremiah 31:33-‬34 ESV
    But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
     
    - I will put My law in their minds, 
    - I will write it on their hearts; 
    - I will be their God, 
    - they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother,  
    - they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, 
    -  I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin  I will remember no more.”
     
    The  new covenant is a better covenant because it is the Lord who will fulfill it 
     
    It means the  New covenant is a covenant of Grace
     
    It is a covenant of Grace because in the new covenant, the agreement is not between man and God, but  it is an agreement of our Lord Jesus and God the Father.

  • Hebrews 10:7 NIV
    7 Then I said, ‘Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll—   I have come to do your will, my God.’”[a]

     
     Hebreo 10:7 ASND
    Kaya sinabi ko sa iyo, ‘Narito ako para tuparin ang kalooban mo, O Dios, ayon sa nasusulat sa Kasulatan tungkol sa akin.’ ”
     
    Mateo 5:17 ASND
    “Huwag ninyong isipin na naparito ako upang ipawalang-saysay ang Kautusan ni Moises at ang isinulat ng mga propeta. Naparito ako upang tuparin ang mga ito.
     
    Roma 5:19 ASND
    Kung sa pagsuway ng isang tao, marami ang naging makasalanan, ganoon din naman, dahil sa pagsunod ng isang tao marami ang itinuring ng Dios na matuwid.
     
    Galacia 3:13 ASND
    Ngunit hindi natin masunod ang lahat ng iniuutos ng Kautusan, kaya sinumpa tayo ng Dios. Pero ngayon, tinubos na tayo ni Cristo sa sumpang ito. Sinumpa siya alang-alang sa atin, dahil sinasabi sa Kasulatan, “Isinumpa ang sinumang binitay sa puno.”
    •  
      2 Corinto 5:21 ASND
      Kailanmaʼy hindi nagkasala si Cristo, ngunit alang-alang sa atin, itinuring siyang makasalanan para sa pamamagitan niyaʼy maituring tayong matuwid ng Dios.
       
      Filipos 2:7‭-‬8 ASND
      Sa halip, ibinaba niya nang lubusan ang sarili niya sa pamamagitan ng pag-aanyong alipin. Naging tao siyang tulad natin. At sa pagiging tao niya, nagpakumbaba siya at naging masunurin sa Dios hanggang sa kamatayan, maging sa kamatayan sa krus.
       
      Because of what Jesus did in fulfilling the old covenant demand through obeying the law perfectly, the  beneficiaries is man, and this benefits will receive through faith in Jesus and in His finished work
       
      Si Jesus Ang sumunod sa kautusan ng perfecto,   At si Jesus Ang tumanggap ng lahat ng sumpa sa lahat ng ating pagsuway sa kautusan ng Diyos, Upang Tayo ay magkaroon ng kapatawaran, Buhay na walang hanggan, kaligtasan, maging matuwid sa harapan ng Diyos, maging anak ng Diyos, at tumanggap ng lahat ng Spiritual na pagpapala

    • 1 Corinthians 1:30 NASB1995
    • But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption

    • Romans 5:17‭-‬18 NASB
    • For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.

    • Roma 3:22‭-‬25 ASND
    • Ang taoʼy itinuturing ng Dios na matuwid sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya kay Jesu-Cristo. At walang pinapaboran ang Dios. Kaya ang sinumang sumasampalataya kay Jesu-Cristo ay itinuturing niyang matuwid. Sapagkat ang lahat ay nagkasala at hindi naging karapat-dapat sa paningin ng Dios. Ngunit dahil sa biyaya ng Dios sa atin, itinuring niya tayong matuwid sa pamamagitan ni Cristo Jesus na siyang tumubos sa atin. Itoʼy regalo ng Dios. Isinugo si Cristo Jesus sa mundo para ialay ang kanyang buhay, nang sa ganoon mawala ang galit ng Dios sa atin, at sa pamamagitan ng kanyang dugo ay mapatawad ang ating mga kasalanan kung sasampalataya tayo sa kanya.

    • new life, forgiveness, eternal life,salvation, righteousness, and all spiritual blessings is all under the new covenant  






  • VI. When the new covenant starts?
      
    God’s New Covenant begin after Jesus’ death and resurrection. 
     
    Luke 22:20, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood”

  • Hebreo 9:16‭-‬17 ASND
    Maihahalintulad ito sa isang huling testamento na kailangang mapatunayan na namatay na ang gumawa nito, dahil wala itong bisa habang nabubuhay pa siya. Nagkakabisa lang ang isang testamento kapag namatay na ang gumawa nito
     
    1 Pedro 1:3-‬4 ASND
    Purihin natin ang Dios at Ama ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo! Dahil sa dakila niyang awa sa atin, ipinanganak tayong muli sa pamamagitan ng muling pagkabuhay ni Jesu-Cristo. Ito ang nagbibigay sa atin ng malaking pag-asa na may nakahandang mana ang Dios para sa atin. Ang manang itoʼy nasa langit, walang kapintasan, hindi nasisira, at hindi kumukupas.
     
    Marcos 16:15 ASND
    Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Humayo kayo sa buong mundo at ipangaral ninyo ang Magandang Balita sa lahat ng tao.
     
    VII. What happen to the old covenant?
     
     
    Hebreo 8:13 ASND
    Nang sabihin ng Dios na may bago nang kasunduan, malinaw na pinawalang-bisa na niya ang nauna, at ang anumang wala nang bisa at luma na ay mawawala na lamang.
     
    Hebrews 8:13 NLT
    When God speaks of a “new” covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete. It is now out of date and will soon disappear.
     
    The  old covenant is  obsolete.
     
    The old covenant cannot be use for Christian living, victorious living, intimate relationship with God, and to gain God"s favor
     
    When God speaks of a “new” covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete. It is now out of date and will soon disappear.
     
    Old Covenant is base on the obedience to the law to make a person righteous and blessed
     
    But in the new covenant it is base on faith on what Jesus has done for us.
     
    We are made righteous by faith in Jesus and in his finished word at the cross
     
    VIII. The contrast of Old and new covenant
     
    To unleash God’s grace in our lives, we must understand the contrasts between the two covenants. 


  • 1.  In the Old Covenant, 
  • The Law was written on stones, 
     
    - New covenant
    It was written  in the hearts. 


  • 2. Old Covenant
  • -  Ministry of condemnation, 
    “The letter kills,” 
     
    - New covenant,
    Ministry of righteousness 
    “The Spirit gives life,”
     
  • 3. Old Covenant 
  • - our sins is covered by the blood of animals.
     
    - New covenant 
    our sins was cleansed and wipe away by the blood of our Lord Jesus.
     
     4. 
    Old covenant,
  • - made righteous through obedience to the law
     
    - New covenant,
  • made righteous through faith in Jesus and what he did for us.
     


  • 5. Old covenant,
  • - mainly earthly blessings,
     
    - New covenant,
     mainly spiritual blessings
     


  • 6. Old covenant, 
  • - Continual offerings for sins, 
     
    - New Covenant, 
    Perfected forever by one offering 
     


  • 7. Old covenant,
  • - Base on our performance 
     
    - New Covenant,
    base on Christ performance
  • ​

  • 8. Old covenant,
  • -  the temple is where the presence of God dwells
     
    - New covenant,
    our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
     


  • 9. Old covenant,
  • - Conditional forgiveness based on performance.
     
    - New covenant,
    Unconditional forgiveness based on Christ’s work.
    we forgive because Christ forgave our sins 
     


  • 10. Old Covenant,
  • -  Law is life
      
    - New Covenant,
     Christ is life


  • 11. Old Covenant, 
  • The Law taught to bring men to Christ, 
     
    - New Covenant, 
    Grace taught to denying  ungodliness and worldly lust, and  live soberly, righteously, and godly 
     
    It is impossible to experience the joy and victory of the resurrected life of Christ until we bury our old testament mindset.
     
    IX. What is the used of old testament? 
     
  • 1. In reading the old testament books, we looks for Jesus in the scriptures, the basis of our reading in the old testament is to encounter Christ
  •  to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Jesus
  • Knowing Jesus more.


  • 2. We lift up the grace of God that is enclosed in the scriptures
  • - we interpret the scriptures in new covenant perspective.

  • 3. Serve as encouragement and warning
  •  - Romans 15:4 NASB1995
    For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
     
    X. Conclusion 
     Philemon 1:6 MEV
    that the sharing of your faith may be most effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you from Christ Jesus
