"But the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which He is mediator is superior to the old one, and it is founded on better promises" Heb. 8:6
High priests described in the Old Testament had to periodically offer gifts and sacrifices for the sins of the people, but Jesus offered Himself once for all. Now at the right hand of the "Majesty in heaven" (v. 1), He serves in the sanctuary set up by the Lord, not by man. Furthermore, the apostle Paul noted that God has given us the ministry of reconciliation and made us competent as ministers of the new covenant. We can proclaim Christ to the world's peoples with the knowledge that His promises are sure and His covenant secure.
Jesus, we thank You for Your wonderful promises and covenant. Find us faithful as ministers of this covenant.
