I think that there are passages that state that the Old has past away.

If I am correct, what are the passages?

THANKS!!!
 
I am still trying to find passages that say the Old Law and temple system of sacrifice is past away.

Any help!

Thanks!
 
Seamus- the old sacrificial system has passed away, along with the temple. If the Temple was renewed, the Jews would begin sacrificing again.

As for the Law, far from “passing away” Jesus came to perfect the Law: -

Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Matthew 5:17-18

God taught His people through the Torah- the Law of the Covenant, but He spoke His eternal Word in Jesus and everything He has to say to us is fulfilled in His incarnation.

I hope this helps!
 
I think the passage you’re looking for is Revelations 21:4-5
4He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death or mourning, wailing or pain, (for) **the old order has passed away." **5
The one who sat on the throne 5 said, "Behold, I make all things new." Then he said, “Write these words down, for they are trustworthy and true.”

Hebrews 8:6-13:[6] But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. [7] For **if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second.

**[8] For he finds fault with them when he says: “The days will come, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah; [9] not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord. [10] This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. [11] And they shall not teach every one his fellow or every one his brother, saying, `Know the Lord,’ for all shall know me, from the least of them to the greatest. [12] For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.”

[13] In speaking of a new covenant he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
 
I think you guys hit the right passages. I could not recall the correct words, but you guys could.

THANKS!!!
