“<strong>The</strong>re is, on the one hand, the abrogation <strong>of</strong> an earlier commandment, because it was<br />
weak and ineffectual … <strong>The</strong>re is, on the other hand, the introduction <strong>of</strong> a better hope<br />
through which we approach God … Accordingly, Jesus has become the guarantee <strong>of</strong> a<br />
better covenant … He has obtained a more excellent ministry, and thus is the mediator <strong>of</strong><br />
the better covenant … If the first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no<br />
need for a second … So in speaking <strong>of</strong> a new covenant, he has made the first one obsolete,<br />
and what is obsolete and growing old will soon disappear.” ~ Hebrews 7:18-22 & 8:6-13<br />
“For no one can lay any foundation other than the one that has been laid; and that<br />
foundation is Jesus Christ … So be imitators <strong>of</strong> me, [but only] as I am <strong>of</strong> Christ … For we<br />
do not proclaim ourselves, but proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as slaves for<br />
Jesus’ sake” ~ <strong>Paul</strong> <strong>of</strong> Tarsus (1 Corinthians 3:11, 1 Corinthians 11:1, & 2 Corinthians 4:5)<br />
“Everyone who does not abide in the teaching <strong>of</strong> Christ, but goes beyond it, does not<br />
have God; whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son” ~ 2 John 1:9<br />
