As I sit here today, I am so thankful for the NEW Covenant. Because of the New Covenant we don't have to choose one of our best animals, symbolically place all of our sins on that animal and bring it to a priest to be sacrificed. Even then, there was always that reminder of sin. I can't even imagine living that way.
Jesus, our sin-bearer, took all of the punishment that we deserved. His shed blood didn't just "cover" our sin, but completely removed it. The Bible says that there should be no more remembrance of sin. Praise God for his grace!
And as we take communion, we can reflect on this truth..."This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in REMEMBRANCE OF ME". He now wants us to remember Him instead of sin. Isn't that wonderful and freeing?

As Christians, sometimes we forget who we really are. I was reading 2 Peter 1 today, and discovered verse 9, which says, "For he who lacks these things is short-sighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins." What a powerful verse of scripture! So, when the devil comes at you with accusations, just remind him that those sins don't exist anymore!!

To understand what God thinks of you, and why, will radically change the way you think about God. These truths will heal your heart as you will find that you can solidly hope in the One who died and rose again for you. Courage and confidence are the result of Jesus' healing grace and the "good news" found in the gospel. The transforming love of God has been given to us unconditionally and it reveals God's heart toward us. Christ died for us while we were yet sinners (Romans 5:8). This is a powerful foundational truth.
