Despite how frequently the Bible speaks about sin, many believers struggle to define it. Ask a group of Christians what sin is, and you'll likely hear a variety of answers. Some describe it as breaking God's rules. Others define it as moral failure or disobedience. While those answers contain truth, the biblical picture is richer and more profound.
Despite how often the Bible uses covenant language, many believers are unsure what a covenant actually is. More importantly, many don't realize that covenant is one of the primary themes holding the entire Bible together.
Many Christians assume Jesus came to abolish the Torah, but the Gospels tell a very different story. Jesus taught from the Torah, lived according to the commandments, and revealed its deepest meaning through His life and ministry. When we recover the Jewish context of Jesus’ teachings, the Bible begins to feel more unified, vibrant, and connected than ever before.
