Hebrews 9:15-18 - Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established. For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive. Therefore not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood.
Exodus 24:8 - And Moses took the blood and threw it on the people and said, “Behold the blood of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”
Application:
· Since Christ’s death has been duly attested, the promised eternal inheritance is available to me
· The payment of sin’s penalty requires a death
· Only after I agree to obey the Lord can I participate in His covenant with Him
