Understanding the Covenants

The Jews were under the law of Moses, under the Old Covenant before Jesus died on the cross. Non-Jews were never under the law of Moses.

After Jesus died on the cross, the New Covenant came into effect, but the church as we know it, kept to doing good to be right with God which is what the law was about.

The Old Testament fore-told of the New Covenant, which we are now under, but the religious leaders are not preaching and teaching like anything changed.

The shame that results from not being able to do good to be right with God, keeps people from knowing God.
