What's Wrong with the Law?

There was never anything wrong with the Law, so it never changed from the Old Covenant to the New Covenant (Psalm 89:34), but there was something wrong with the promise. Under the Old Covenant the people promised to obey and keep the law, but as you and I know, people break their promises all the time, just as the Israelites did several times when they broke the law. So that covenant was broken, and under the New Covenant, Christ has promised to give us the power to keep the Law. Christ cannot break a promise, so we know for sure that under the New Covenant we have the ability to keep the law (Hebrews 8:7-10 & 13).
