New CovenantSample

A while later God gave the following message to the prophet Jeremiah: “The days are coming”, declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah. It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them”, declares the Lord. “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time”, declares the Lord. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the Lord. “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”

And Jesus, on the night he would be betrayed, took the bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me,” then took the cup and said, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.”
