The Title page of the second part of the Christian Bible reads: The New Testament, ordinarily called "The New Covenant." The New Testament Or "New Covenant" is the story of the appearance on earth of Jesus Christ to be the mediator of a new covenant, and of his followers who made up the people of the new covenant. When Jesus gave his disciples the cup at the Last Supper, he stated: "This cup is the new covenant (new agreement) in my blood" (I Corinthians 11:25; cf. Mark 14:24).
