God made a promise to Abraham about a sacrifice that would come through his Seed (Christ). The 1st covenant (law) came 430 years later and this old covenant had a purpose (to declare all guilty before God) but it did not annul the covenant of the promise through faith. The law was added until the Seed (Christ) should come. No single law could provide righteousness or justification. It brought a curse to all who were under it. Now it is through Him by faith (not law) we have received our inheritance. Fault was found in the 1st covenant and it's now obsolete. Jesus came to do the will of God which was to abolish the 1st covenant and establish the 2nd. The 1st was temporary. The 2nd is everlasting!
