The New Testament teaches that the new covenant began when Jesus died on the cross (see: Matthew 26:28; Mark 14:24; Luke 22:20; 1 Corinthians 11:25; Hebrews 9:20; 13:20). Because of Jesus’ sacrifice, God forgives those who believe in Jesus, and God gives his Holy Spirit to them. The Holy Spirit helps people to obey God.
The new covenant is better than the old one because it is based on the sacrifice of Jesus. Jesus’ death atoned for people’s sins permanently. The sacrifices made under the old covenant could not do this (see: 2 Corinthians 3:7-18; Galatians 4:24-26; Hebrews 7:22; 8-10).
