Cary Cox, from Mark 2:18-22. Everything is new with the coming of Jesus Christ! He brings the joy of the kingdom of God, the messianic feast! He is the Bridegroom of God’s people! He is the substance of all the shadows, prophecies, promises, and pictures of the OT. In Christ we are a new people in a new covenant with a new temple, headed to the new Jerusalem in new heavens and new earth! It’s all about Jesus.

A New Beginning
Cary Cox, from Genesis 9:1-17 (Genesis Study 22). After Noah gets off the ark, God gives him the ‘house rules for Creation 2.0,’ what life will look like after the Flood. He is the God of new beginnings. The Lord also establishes a covenant with creation, giving precious promises! Creation and Covenant point to Jesus Christ! In Jesus, we relate to God in a new covenant while we wait on the new creation that is coming!
