Mark 2:21–22 (NASB95)

                21           “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; otherwise the patch pulls away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear results.

                22           “No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins as well; but one puts new wine into fresh wineskins.”

The Old is not like the New.  It can’t be stitched together.  One can’t be put in the framework of the other.

Galatians 3:21–26 (NASB95)

                21           Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? May it never be! For if a law had been given which was able to impart life, then righteousness would indeed have been based on law.

                22           But the Scripture has shut up everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

                23           But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed.

                24           Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.

                25           But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

                26           For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

Deuteronomy 18:15–19 (NASB95)

                15           “The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your countrymen, you shall listen to him.

                16           “This is according to all that you asked of the Lord your God in Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, let me not see this great fire anymore, or I will die.’

                17           “The Lord said to me, ‘They have spoken well.

                18           ‘I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you, and I will put My words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.

                19           ‘It shall come about that whoever will not listen to My words which he shall speak in My name, I Myself will require it of him.

John 8:26 (NASB95)

                26           “I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.”

Hebrews 8:7–13 (NASB95)

A New Covenant

                7              For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second.

                8              For finding fault with them, He says,

“Behold, days are coming, says the Lord,

When I will effect a new covenant

With the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;

                9              Not like the covenant which I made with their fathers

On the day when I took them by the hand

To lead them out of the land of Egypt;

For they did not continue in My covenant,

And I did not care for them, says the Lord.

                10           “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel

After those days, says the Lord:

I will put My laws into their minds,

And I will write them on their hearts.

And I will be their God,

And they shall be My people.

                11           “And they shall not teach everyone his fellow citizen,

And everyone his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’

For all will know Me,

From the least to the greatest of them.

                12           “For I will be merciful to their iniquities,

And I will remember their sins no more.”

                13           When He said, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear.

Ezekiel 36:26–27 (NASB95)

                26           “Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

                27           “I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances.

Joel 2:28–29 (NASB95)

The Promise of the Spirit

                28           “It will come about after this

That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind;

And your sons and daughters will prophesy,

Your old men will dream dreams,

Your young men will see visions.

                29           “Even on the male and female servants

I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

Galatians 3:2–5 (NASB95)

                2              This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?

                3              Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?

                4              Did you suffer so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?

                5              So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?

New Covenant has to deal with your heart.

 It has to do with God’s commandments written in your mind and heart. 

It has to do with following the Spirit and putting to death the deeds of the flesh.

Galatians 5:18–25 (NASB95)

                18           But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.

                19           Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality,

                20           idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions,

                21           envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

                22           But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

                23           gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

                24           Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

                25           If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

Romans 8:1–14 (NASB95)

Deliverance from Bondage

                1              Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

                2              For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

                3              For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,

                4              so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

                5              For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

                6              For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,

                7              because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so,

                8              and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

                9              However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.

                10           If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

                11           But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

                12           So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—

                13           for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

                14           For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

The fulfillment of the Law is by faith in Jesus Christ.

Now life is given to us by living in the Spirit of God, the deeds of the flesh lead to death.

The commandment of God is not now the Law of Moses.

But where murder was a sin under Moses, the Spirit leads us to the same commandment written on our heart.

Judge for yourself, does God’s Holy Spirit lead you to kill.

We now have a permanent most effective sacrifice forever for our sin—that of Jesus on the cross once for all.

The new Covenant is by following the commandments of God, but not the letter of the Law of Moses, but by the leadership of the Spirit and His commandments written on our hearts.
