How do we know the superiority of the new covenant is true?

Answered in 1 source

The superiority of the new covenant is illustrated in Scripture by its spiritual nature and the unconditional grace it provides through Christ.

Scripture, particularly the Book of Hebrews, clearly delineates the superiority of the new covenant over the old covenant through the works of Christ. It emphasizes that Christ's priesthood surpasses that of the Aaronic priesthood, establishing a ministry that is not based on the law but rather on grace. This means that the new covenant is more than just a continuation of the old; it represents a radical transformation in how God interacts with His people—moving from a system of rituals to a relationship grounded in faith and grace. The unconditional promises of the new covenant assure believers that their salvation is secure in Christ and not dependent on their own merit.
