The opening as it read in October 6, 2023
School of thought in Christianity Christians consider Jesus to be the mediator of the New Covenant . Depicted is his famous Sermon on the Mount in which he commented on the Old Covenant . Dual-covenant or two-covenant theology is a school of thought in Christian theology regarding the relevance of the Hebrew Bible , which Christians call the Old Testament . Most Christians hold that the Old Testament has been superseded by the New Covenant , although the moral law continues to apply (cf. covenant theology ); in contrast, a minority hold that the Mosaic covenant has been abrogated . Dual-covenant theology is unique in holding that the Mosaic covenant remains valid for Jews while the New Covenant only applies to non-Jews or gentiles . such as Hebrews 8:6 "God's Law in Old and New Covenants" .
