We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

With the arrival of Jesus Christ came the New Covenant. He told His disciples during the Last Supper, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood” (Lk. 22:20). And the Lord made the arrival of the New Covenant dramatically clear when the veil in the Temple was torn from top to bottom after Jesus died on the cross (Mt. 27:51). This event signified the fact that the whole old system had ended and a new covenant had dawned. The Holy Place was now exposed, and redeemed sinners by the blood of Christ (not the blood of animals) were given open and direct access to the throne of God (Heb. 4:16). And to make it unmistakably clear, God permitted the Temple to be destroyed in AD 70 to put an end to all animal sacrifices now that the shadows of animal sacrifices have given way to the substance; the one-and-for-all blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Heb. 9:12).

82:1 ‘n Psalm van Asaf. God staan in die vergadering van die gode; Hy hou gerig te midde van die gode.

82:2 Hoe lank sal julle onregverdig oordeel en partydig wees vir die goddelose mense? Sela.

82:3 Doen reg aan die swakke en die wees; gee aan die ellendige en die arme sy reg.

82:4 Red die swakke en behoeftige, bevry hulle uit die hand van die goddelose mense.

82:5 Hulle weet nie en verstaan nie; hulle loop rond in duisternis: al die fondamente van die aarde wankel.

82:6 Ek self het gesê: Julle is gode, en julle is almal seuns van die Allerhoogste-

82:7 nogtans sal julle sterwe soos mense, en soos een van die vorste sal julle val.

82:8 Staan op, o God, oordeel die aarde! Want U het erfbesit van al die nasies.
