The New Testament

The New Testament

Matthew 26 is a turning point in the gospel narrative—it is where the New Testament truly takes shape. Here we see Jesus instituting the Lord’s Supper, a symbol of the new covenant, saying, “This is my blood of the new testament.” These words were not poetic—they were prophetic. Jesus was preparing to become the Passover Lamb, establishing a new relationship between God and man, not built on law, but on grace.

The New Testament is not merely a book division—it is a divine transition. It means we no longer approach God through rituals, but through relationship. In Matthew 26, Jesus embraced betrayal, sorrow, and sacrifice. This chapter is a summary of His mission: to bring man into covenant with God through His body and blood. The old was fading, and the new was beginning—not written on tablets, but on hearts.

When you read the words “New Testament,” see more than scripture—see salvation. See a divine rescue plan carried out in love. You are no longer under condemnation; you are under a covenant. A better one. A lasting one.
