Featured My (JonC) view of the Atonement

AustinC,
I'm not certain that Hebrews 11 is all that much helpful in supporting your thinking.

The last verse in that chapter states:

39These were all commended for their faith, yet they did not receive what was promised. 40God had planned something better for us, so that together with us they would be made perfect.
​

Now, the Scriptures do state that Christ came to fulfill the Law. What exactly does that mean? It means that the Law took no more dominion as the way to approach God (remember woman at the well asking about worship) but became a "school master" to direct people to Christ (Romans).

That was the "fulfillment" yet, we and everyone else is still accountable to the precepts for Christ stated that there are two principles to live by: Love God, Love your neighbor.

The New Covenant did not come because Christ fulfilled the requirements of the Old Covenant, but because the veil that was once a layer of separation between God's presence and humankind, is removed and we now have access to the throne of God by the veil of His body (Hebrews).

Hope this helps.
