Ephesians 1:3-3
3) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ;
Hebrews 8:6-13
6) But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
7) For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
8) For finding fault with them, he said, "Behold, the days come," says the Lord, "That I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
9) Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day that I took them by the hand to lead them forth out of the land of Egypt; For they didn‘t continue in my covenant, And I disregarded them," says the Lord.
10) "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be to them a God, And they will be to me a people.
11) They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, Every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,‘ For all will know me, From the least of them to the greatest of them.
12) For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more."
13) In that he says, "A new covenant," he has made the first old. But that which is becoming old and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
1 Corinthians 10:15-18
15) I speak as to wise men. Judge what I say.
16) The cup of blessing which we bless, isn‘t it a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, isn‘t it a communion of the body of Christ?
17) Seeing that we, who are many, are one bread, one body; for we all partake of the one bread.
18) Consider Israel after the flesh. Don‘t those who eat the sacrifices have communion with the altar?
Hebrews 10:16-16
16) "This is the covenant that I will make with them: ‘After those days,‘ says the Lord, ‘I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;‘" then,

19) I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner.
20) Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,
21) make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
