The Old and New Covenants |S4:E2|

In this House of David podcast, Pastor Eric delves into the relationship between the Old and New Covenants in Christianity, exploring whether the Old Covenant, particularly the Mosaic Law, still holds relevance for believers today. While acknowledging that the New Covenant is superior, the author argues that aspects of the Mosaic Law, such as its moral standards, remain relevant for Christians as a means of instruction and conviction of sin. However, the author emphasizes that Christians are no longer under the bondage of the Old Covenant but are now under grace through Christ. The reflection highlights the importance of love as the central commandment of the New Covenant, surpassing the requirement of the Old Covenant to love one's neighbor as oneself. Ultimately, Pastor Eric contends that while the New Covenant presents a higher standard, it can only be achieved through the power of the Holy Spirit, leading believers to sacrificially love others as Christ did.
