God said that he would make a new covenant in the book of Jeremiah 31 and Jesus came down to this earth and established the new covenant through the Passover. Then why did God decide to give another covenant over the old covenant. About the reason Paul explains like this:
Hebrews 8:7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.
Paul says that the reason God made another covenant or the new covenant was the first covenant or the old covenant was not good enough for the salvation. It had something wrong in it. Its ministry for the forgiveness of sins with animal blood by the Order of Aaron could not bring the perfect salvation, and because of that the ministry was changed into the Order of Melchizedek by Jesus through his own blood, not with the blood of animals. Because of this change in ministry, the law and all the regulation has changed too from the Law of Moses to the Law of Christ.
Hebrews 7:11 If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood—and indeed the law given to the people established that priesthood—why was there still need for another priest to come, one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? 12 For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also.
Therefore, the new covenant is the perfection of the Law of God to bring complete salvation to people. For this reason to receive salvation we must know and follow the new covenant. Then what is the new covenant?
Galatians 4:21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. 23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise. 24 These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.
Through Abraham’s two wives Paul explains the two covenants of God: the old covenant and the new covenant. Let us take a look at this table.
The slave woman The free woman
Hagar Sarah
The Old Covenant The New Covenant
Mt. Sinai Mt. Zion
The Earthly Jerusalem The Heavenly Jerusalem
Hagar Sarah
The Old Covenant The New Covenant
Mt. Sinai Mt. Zion
The Earthly Jerusalem The Heavenly Jerusalem
After explaining the two covenants, He continues to explain the reality of the new covenant. The reality of the old covenant was the city of Jerusalem and the earthly Temple built in it. But the reality of the new covenant is the heavenly Jerusalem and the Temple. Then what is this heavenly Jerusalem Temple? Jesus teaches us that his body is the true reality of the temple. He said to the Jews, “Destroy this temple and I will raise it up in three days.” The temple means his body where the Spirit of God dwells. Through this God is teaching us the reality of the Temple, Christ who came down to this earth to us.
Then what is the reality of the Heavenly Jerusalem? Paul says, “She is our Mother” in heaven. Our Father in heaven came as the reality of the temple 2000 years ago, and in the same way our Mother in heaven will come down as the reality of the temple in the last days. About coming of heavenly Jerusalem our Mother, John describes in his vision in the book of Revelation 21. In his vision he saw the Heavenly Jerusalem our Mother coming down out of heaven from God as the reality of the temple to give us the water of life (Rev 22:17). The true temple is the place where the Spirit of God dwells. Wherever the Spirit of God dwells is the temple. In that sense, John is saying that our Mother would come down as man in the flesh in the last days.
To fulfill the prophecies of the bible the true reality of temple our Mother came down to this earth to give us life. Let us give glory to God the Father and Mother. This is the true teaching of Christ Ahnsahnghong, the true Savior in the Age of the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly Mother.
