Hello
For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
Hebrews 7:12
Christ authored a new way, a new system and a new people. Not just new system but a perfect, efficient and eternal solution. The first or the old system failed desperately to produce people with the quality required by God standards neither offered the help man needed most.
The law, the religious rituals, the priesthood of Aron, and the sacrifices failed. Man needed a different solution.
Christ became the solution.
Through his death and resurrection he dealt with sin and the devil. We can now count and boast in his victory.
We have a new way to be right with God. To be justified, righteous.
It is by grace through faith
Ephesians 2:8-10
Not through the works of law.
We do not need to slaughter animals as a sacrifice for our sins, we do not need to observe special days and moon.
We do not need to keep up with the religious rituals of the Old Testament. Because we can now achieve the same result (righteousness) through believing in Christ.
Sin was and is a serious thing, that's why God demand death as a penalty if a man sinned. So when Adam the first man and his wife sinned, all of humanity inherited sin and death.
The righteousness of God demand he should die or else another righteous man, who is without the natural sin and without sins, should die to redeem man back to his former position.
And that man is Christ. Is death settled the debt, our punishment. When we believe in him, we escape from death to eternal life, from darkness to light, from being the children of wrath to children of obedience, from being condemned to being justified.
For those who real comprehend, how much big sin problem was and how much severe is God's judgment on sin, know how much the death of Christ is to them.
God's judgment is scaring. But God's forgiveness through Christ is refreshing.
Thank you for your time.
