Jeremiah 31:31Easy To Read VersionThe Lord said these things, “The time is coming when I will make a new Agreement {\cf2\super [259]} with the family of Israel, and with the family of Judah. See the chapter |
Do this because the days will come”—this message is from the Lor —“when I will bring my people, Israel and Judah, back from exile.” {\cf2\super [231]} This message is from the Lord. “I will put those people back in the land that I gave to their ancestors. {\cf2\super [232]} Then my people will own that land again.”
The Lord says,\par “The time is coming when\par the person plowing the field,\par will catch up with the person\par harvesting the crops.\par The person that walks on the grapes,\par will catch up with the person\par that pulls the grapes from the plants.\par The sweet wine will pour\par from the hills and mountains.\par
So Christ brings a new agreement {\cf2\super [108]} from God to his people. Christ brings this new agreement so that those people that are called by God can have the things that God promised. God’s people can have those things forever. They can have those things because Christ died to pay for the sins that people did under the first agreement. {\cf2\super [109]} Christ died to make people free from those sins.
