The eighteenth audio in our new series about the wonder of Scripture and how to read and interpret it through the revelation of Jesus. The Jesus Lens #18: What Was God Thinking? What was God going doing through all the centuries of falleness and then subservience to the law before Jesus came and why is Christianity still embracing old covenant realities even after the cross liberated us from doing so?

WOW! This whole series is so great!!! Thank you Wayne! I like what you said, “Why do we still live old covenant realities, but with new covenant terminology?” Great question! We still live as though we are bound to the old covenant, as though the cross never happened… priesthood, temple, sabbath, sacrifice, law… We’re free! Everything has been done for us and yet we live like there is still something we have to do! It’s like going from one form of slavery to another, from the bondage of sin to the bondage of religion. Only the truth will set you free from all forms of slavery.
