Whom God has put forward as the sign of his mercy, through faith, by his blood, to make clear his righteousness when, in his pity, God let the sins of earlier times go without punishment;

Romans 5:1
For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Romans 5:19

Who has made us able to be servants of a new agreement; not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter gives death, but the Spirit gives life.
2 Corinthians 3:7
For if the operation of the law, giving death, recorded in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the eyes of the children of Israel had to be turned away from the face of Moses because of its glory, a glory which was only for a time:
2 Corinthians 3:9
For if the operation of the law, producing punishment, had its glory, how much greater will be the operation of the Spirit causing righteousness?
