In this sermon, Pastor Jamie Self teaches from Jeremiah 31:31–34 about God’s promise of a New Covenant—one not built on external rules, but on inner transformation. He explains that the Old Covenant relied on law and sacrifice, yet always fell short because human hearts were hardened. In contrast, the New Covenant in Christ is written on believers’ hearts by the Holy Spirit, producing genuine obedience and a personal relationship with God. This inward change brings freedom, heartfelt faithfulness, and direct access to God, revealing that Christianity is not about religious duty, but about a Spirit-filled relationship.
Discussion Questions:
1. How does understanding the contrast between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant deepen your appreciation for Jesus’ sacrifice and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit?
2. In what areas of your life are you still living with an “Old Covenant mindset” of obligation rather than heart-driven obedience?
3. Pastor Jamie described the New Covenant as moving us from “have to” to “want to.” How does this shift affect your daily spiritual practices and decisions?
4. What does it mean that the New Covenant gives us direct access to God and that “we are His dwelling place”? How should this impact your prayer life and community engagement?
5. Reflecting on 2 Corinthians 3:17–18, how is God transforming you “from one degree of glory to another”? Where do you see the Spirit actively reshaping your heart?
