What does the Bible say about testament?
Bible Topic · WEB
The Bible teaches that the new covenant is established through the death and blood of Jesus Christ, bringing forgiveness of sins and securing believers' inheritance from God. Hebrews 9:16-18 explains that a covenant is ratified through death, showing why Christ's sacrificial death was necessary. At the Last Supper, Jesus identified the cup as His blood of the new covenant, poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins, as recorded in Matthew 26:28, Mark 14:24, and Luke 22:20. First Corinthians 11:25 calls the church to remember this covenant through the Lord's Supper, trusting Christ alone as its mediator and Savior.
