The new Covenant is established on better promises


The new Covenant is established on better promises

Heb 8:6

But in fact the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which he is mediator is superior to the old one, since the new covenant is established on better promises.

Heb 8:2

Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by a mere human being.

Micah 4:1

In the last days
the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established
    as the highest of the mountains;
it will be exalted above the hills,
    and peoples will stream to it.



1 Cor 9:18

18 What then is my reward? Just this: that in preaching the gospel I may establish it free of charge, and so not make full use of my rights as a preacher of the gospel.


We learn the following from the above verses

1)    The new Covenant is established on better promises

2)    The true tabernacle is set up by the Lord, not by a mere human being.

3)    In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established
    as the highest of the mountains;
it will be exalted above the hills,
    and peoples will stream to it.

4)    Establishing Gospel as free of charge is our reward.
