Edenic Covenant - Still in force

Law Covenant - Fulfilled by Jesus
New Covenant - Instituted by Jesus upon the eve of his Sacrifice and still in force.
So, the question is what are you talking about?
Do you know? Or are you just trying to start that 463 page thread?
What are the details of the new covenant? I know one detail is that people were no longer required to talk to god through mediators (priests), and another thing I've heard is that sacrifices (goats, sheep, etc) were no longer necessary in order to keep God happy. These things were part of the everlasting covenant from the beginning times, right? If it changed, then it wasn't everlasting, was it?
