CHRIST, THE LAW AND THE COVENANT

WHAT CAN A BE ANOTHER WORD FOR COVENANT: AGREEMENT

ONE OF THE FIRST PROMISES:
GENESIS 9: 12- 17- RAINBOW

ANOTHER COVENANT:
GENESIS 17: 1- 12

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 2 COVENANTS?
THEY ARE DIFFERENT SIGNS.
ONE IS UNIVERSAL- ONE WAS SPECIFIC
ABRAHAM HAD TO DO SOMETHING (GET CIRCUMCIZED) NOAH DIDNT DO ANYTHING.

WHAT DO THEY HAVE IN COMMON?
GOD IS MAKING A PROMISE
IT INVOLVES PEOPLE

FIRST COVENANT:
GENESIS 3: 15- 28 (HOW DO YOU THINK ADAM AND EVE WERE FEELING). WHAT WAS THE
PROMISE THEY COULD HOLD ON TO?
GALATIANS 3: 15- 28 (THE PROMISE OF THE SEED)

THIS COVENANT WAS MADE TO ADAM AND EVE AND ALSO TO ABRAHAM WAS TO ALL PEOPLE
WHO BELIEVE (COVENANTS ARE CONDITIONAL). THE SAME HAPPENS WITH CONFLICT
RESOLUTION:
THERE HAS TO BE TWO OR MORE PARTS
BOTH SIDES HAVE TO DO SOMETHING
THEY HAVE TO AGREE TO FOLLOW THE COVENANT

HOW DO WE BREAK A COVENANT? HOW DO WE KNOW GOD WILL BE FAITHFUL NO MATTER
WHAT? DO YOU HAVE ANY BIBLE VERSE THAT SUPPORT THIS?
JOSHUA 1:5
DEUT. 7:9
2 PETER 3:9
WHY DO YOU THINK ITS IMPORTANT TO KNOW GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS PROMISES?

LETS READ:
HEBREW 9: 15- 28
WHAT IS THE SIGN OF THIS NEW COVENANT? DEATH OF CHRIST. HE DID KEPT THE PROMISE.

HOW DO WE ACCEPT THAT COVENANT?
WE NEED TO MAKE THAT DECISION (ACCEPT IT EVERYDAY)
JOHN 3:16 BE(LIEVING)- NOT ONLY BELIEVE BECAUSE THE DEVIL ALSO BELIEVES BUT HE
DOES NOT ACCEPT THE COVENANT.
THIS IS A COVENANT OF LOVE, HOPE AND GRACE

GOD WANTS TO WRITE THIS COVENANT INTO OUR HEARTS SO WE CAN BE(LIEVE) IN HIM.

HOW DOES THIS COVENANT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES?
