Facts about the New Covenant

“when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel

4] It is a better Covenant

Hebrews 7:22

Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant.

5] Its mediator is Jesus

The Wicked

 “Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.” - Psalm 1:4
No matter the temporary apparent benefits of wicked schemes and evil power, all these efforts end at the grave and are swept away leaving the wicked with nothing to show for their efforts as they stand before the righteousness and justice of God.
