Reformed Pastors Give a Primer on Covenant Theology

Host Rev. Chris Gordon and guest Rev. Michael Brown unpack the fundamentals of Covenant Theology. They explore how God consistently interacts with humanity through covenants, starting with the Covenant of Works with Adam. The episode meticulously traces the devastating consequences of Adam's broken covenant—guilt, death, and suffering—through scripture and the different administrations of the various covenants (Adamic, Noahic, Abrahamic, Mosaic, Davidic…) The conversation includes the Law/Gospel distinction and the emphasis that every human being has a personal relationship with God, either through the covenant of works or the Covenant of Grace, and present the powerful image of Christ's righteousness covering us, just as God covered Adam with animal skins. It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of God's redemptive work through history and its direct application to our lives today. 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:03:00 - Why Covenant Theology Can Be a “Bad Word” 00:03:30 - “Fulfillment Theology” Not “Replacement Theology” 00:04:30 - The Nature of a Covenant 00:06:00 - God Never Deals with His People Apart from a Covenant 00:06:24 - The Covenant Formula: “I will be your God and you will be my people” 00:07:40 - The Covenant of Works 00:08:10 - The Adamic Covenant 00:09:35 - Kline on Covenants and God's Spirit of Judgment 00:10:10 - The Consequences of a Broken Covenant 00:11:10 - The Federal Headship of Adam 00:12:08 - Federal Headship in a Familiar Context 00:13:11 - Adam’s Free Will 00:15:10 - Why We Need to Think in Terms of Grace 00:16:30 - Defining Mercy 00:17:00 - The Mentality of "You Get What You Deserve" 00:19:00 - The Book of Life vs. The Book of Deeds 00:20:30 - The Distinction Between "Do" and "Done" 00:21:30 - The Law/Gospel Distinction 00:22:20 - The Devil's Strategy 00:22:45 - Everyone Has a Relationship with God 00:24:35 - God Covering Adam with Animal Skins as a Picture of Christ 00:27:34 - The Noahic Covenant 00:29:50 - The Shift from Genesis 1-11 to Genesis 12+ 00:30:00 - The Abrahamic Covenant 00:32:15 - Cutting a Covenant in Genesis 15 00:38:50 - The Suffering Servant: The Fulfillment of Abraham 00:39:40 - The Mosaic Covenant #covenanttheology #fulfillmenttheology #covenantofworks #covenantofgrace #federalheadship #reformedtheology #lawandgospel ABOUNDING GRACE RADIO: ❤️ DONATE: https://agradio.org/donate 🔗 Website: https://agradio.org 📩 Newsletter: https://agradio.org/newsletter 👤 Facebook:   / aboundingraceradioministry   📸 Instagram:   / aboundinggraceradio   ✖️ X: https://x.com/agradio1 Rev.
