635 Days Saved - A Walk with Christ 
-Old Verse New Covenant-
By calling the covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. Hebrews 8:13

So what have I been tested on this week? This week I have been tested on the new covenant verse the old covenant. One of my friends is now studying the Torah and she believes the church has neglected sharing about the Torah law. This brought on deep discussion about the significance of Jesus coming and the new covenant that the church teaches. The church teaches Gods grace of the sacrificial lamb covers the multitude of sins. A new covenant to say we know we are sinners and can’t abide fully to Torah laws but now know why we need our savior. We know we aren’t perfect but through Jesus we can be cleansed and made like new before our God on His righteous thrown. 
Through the battle this week I have clarity that no we are not saved by abiding by the old Torah laws but saved by the blood of Jesus which makes us new and makes us WANT to abide closer to the laws (written on our hearts Hebrews 8:10) the Prophet Moses set before us. 
The Challenge: 
Look up “The Old Covenant,” and “The New Covenant” today. Study about them and discover why God created this “New Covenant” between us and Him. Do we or do we not still need to abide by the “Old” covenant? Discuss.
