Old Covenant Salvation

from Gaining Christ · host Brig Jones

If the Old Covenant is 'only a shadow' of the New Covenant and lacked the ability to provide eternal salvation for its members, how was a person saved in the Old Covenant? In other words, if the Old Covenant terms, membership, laws, sacraments, ceremonies, and sacrifices could not effectually forgive sins, make a person righteous, or provide eternal life, how was an Old Covenant member eternally saved? Was eternal salvation even available during the Old Covenant? This episode answers these questions, clearly explaining the way of salvation for the people of Israel in the Old Covenant, as well as all others who lived before the New Covenant and sacrifice of Christ.
