Comparisons... The O.T. And the N.T.
This is just a post to make comparisons between the Old and the New covenants . It is to compare Sinai and Zion .
Sinai speaks of fear and terror ...... Zion speaks of love and forgiveness.
Sinai is in a dry desert ..... Zion is the city of the Living God
Sinai , with all it's fear and power is earthly ..... at Zion it is heavenly and spiritual
At Sinai , only Moses could come and meet God ..... at Zion there is innumerable company , a general assembly
Sinai had guilty people in fear .... At Zion just people are made perfect.
At Sinai , Moses is the mediator .... At Zion , Jesus is the mediator .
Sinai put forth an Old Covenant , ratified by the blood of animals ..... Zion has a New Covenant , ratified by the blood of God's precious Son.
Sinai was all about barriers and exclusion .... Zion is all about invitation .
Sinai is law .... Zion is grace
