11 Therefore remember that you, the nations, in time past [were] in [the] flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
12 and that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.
13 But now in Christ Jesus you who were once afar off are made near by the blood of Christ.
4 And we have such trust through Christ toward God,
5 not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves, but our sufficiency [is] of God;
6 who also has made us able ministers of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit makes alive.
16 For where a covenant [is], the death of him covenanting must be offered.
17 For a covenant [is] affirmed over [those] dead, since it never has force when The one covenanting is living.
18 From which we see that neither was the first [covenant] dedicated without blood.
19 For [when] Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the Law, [he] took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
20 saying, This [is] the blood of the covenant which God has enjoined to you.
17 So that if any one [is] in Christ, [that one is] a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
18 And all things [are] of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 whereas God was in Christ reconciling [the] world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and putting the word of reconciliation in us.
20 Then we are ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as God exhorting through us, we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
21 For He has made Him who knew no sin, [to be] sin for us, that we might become [the] righteousness of God in Him.
31 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will cut a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah,
32 not according to the covenant that I cut with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which covenant of Mine they broke, although I was a husband to them, says the LORD;
33 but this [shall be] the covenant that I will cut with the house of Israel: After those days, says the LORD, I will put My law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
34 And they shall no more teach each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, Know the LORD; for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sins no more.
14 how much more shall the blood of Christ (who through [the] eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God) purge your conscience from dead works to serve [the] living God?
15 And for this cause He is the Mediator of the new covenant, so that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
1 For the Law which has a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, [appearing] year by year with the same sacrifices, which they offer continually, they are never able to perfect those drawing near.
2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, when they had been once for all purged, would have had no more conscience of sin.
3 But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again of sins every year.
4 For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
13 In that He says, A new [covenant], He has made the first one old. Now that which decays and becomes old [is] ready to vanish away.
6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much He is also the Mediator of a better covenant, which was built upon better promises.
7 For if that first [covenant] had been without fault, [then] no place would have been sought for the] second.
20 In the same way He took] the cup, after having dined, saying, This cup [is] the new covenant in My blood, which is being poured out for you.
10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son [to be] the propitiation concerning our sins.
22 by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better covenant.
27 And He took the cup and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink all of it.
28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
