The Call to be people of the New Covenant
Heb 8:6-13; Mk 3: 13-19
New covenant, new people, new faith, new community, new life: for behold I make all things new. ..this is the theme that dominated the life of the early Christians. And that was what made them so attractive. All these newness is from one fundamental experience. ..The experience of a new relationship in Christ.
If a relationship with someone is taken to some newer joyful levels, that joy betrays oral in the test of your life's conditions. If a relationship that is on, finds a rough patch sometime, it is bound to affect a person's entire life, thinking, acting and all.
How much do I value my relationship with the Lord who calls me?
