Who has rendered us FIT as servants of the NEW TESTAMENT , Not of WRITING BUT of the Spirit , for the WRITING kills but the Spirit makes ALIVE .

The word TESTAMENT / DIATHEKE , and many believe that is means NEW COVENANT and that we are under the NEW COVENANT .

But the Greek word COVENANT . DIATHEKE can be translated by the following words >

#1 Covenant
#2 Testament
#3 Will
#4 Compact
#5 ARRANGMENT

What say you ?

They all have more or less the same meaning. Especially will. See Hebrews 9:15-28.

This is how I see Heb 9:15 and it speaks to the OLD COVENANT and also to the NEW COVENANT and COVENANT / DIATHEKE MEANS , WILL ?

When reading 2 Cor 3:6 we have to RULE out , NOT THE WRITING which are the Law of Moses called the WRITINGS .

and I say that NEVER wrote that we are saved by the NEW COVENANT , but saved by GRACE , rom 10"9 , Eph 2:8 and I see it eliminates the NEW COVENANT also .

The correct word that FITS HERE is a NEW ARRNGEMENT and that what the the apostle PAUL mean in this passage , Rom 16:25 and 26 the PREACHING , according to Paul's gospel the MYSTERY .
