Hebrews 8:13 (ESV):
Context: a pastor friend of mine is turning from 1689 Federalism to NCT and this Scripture is very key for him.
I always saw that the Sinaitic covenant will be obsolete at the Second Coming, and until then it is growing older in our conviction and newer in our hearts and natures as we grow in sanctification synergistically. (I also realize that I never ran my interpretation through the history of RB theology with deep roots shared by my Presbyterian brothers).
I have a meeting with him this afternoon and my theological library is at home while I am at work today.
Thank you all in advance for what I am sure will be sound exegesis and theological wisdom here.
What is meant by obsolete?13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
