the new covenant

i was behind in my reading and so i covered hebrews 1-10 today.
and there are so many beautiful sentences
(on top of all the beautiful points being made)
the overwhelming encouragement that we are not judged on the law

7:18-19

"The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God"

8:7-8

"For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another. But God found fault with the people and said:
"The time is coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah"

8:13

"By calling this covenant "new," he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear"

9:12

"[Christ] entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption"

and then 6:18

"God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged."

the criteria for someone who benefits from the new covenant is someone who has fled to God to take hold on the hope that is offered.
