Now that which decayeth and waxeth bold is ready to vanish away. <BR/><BR/>Heb. 7:19–20<BR/>“For the law [of Moses] made nothing perfect, but [was only] the bringing in of a better hope … ; by the which we draw nigh unto God. … [And] by so much was Jesus made [the] surety of a better testament” (Heb. 7:19, 22; see also Joseph Smith Translation, Heb. 7:19–20).<BR/><BR/>We know that there is a difference between the two Covenants. But my question is...Did the old covenant start with Adam or with Moses?<BR/><BR/><BR/>George A. Horton Jr.(don't know who he is) wrote this in an Ensign:<BR/>They taught that the “Old Covenant” made on Mount Sinai was fulfilled by the “New Covenant” brought to pass in Gethsemane and Calvary. The Lord said: “I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah. … I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people” (Jer. 31:31, 33).George A. Horton Jr., “An Indispensable Foundation,” Ensign, Mar 2002, 38<BR/><BR/>I guess that would answer my question if I knew who George A. Horton Jr. was and I could trust him.<BR/><BR/>SRThe Creators Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174451357510718270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030463353201423298.post-45282744334355386052007-12-19T08:58:00.000-08:002007-12-19T08:58:00.000-08:00Where's the reference to the New Testament Covenan...Where's the reference to the New Testament Covenant?<BR/>ARThe Creators Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174451357510718270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030463353201423298.post-91171961352406304922007-12-18T21:01:00.000-08:002007-12-18T21:01:00.000-08:00www.freedomfasttrack.comCheck out the wealth of kn...www.freedomfasttrack.com<BR/><BR/>Check out the wealth of knowledge linkThe Creators Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174451357510718270noreply@blogger.com
