A great Bible reference tool; every serious Bible student should have this one in their library. The book is a comprehensive look at the major covenants; begining with the Edenic covenant in Genesis and on through to the New Covenant in the New Testament Gospels. I found this book an invaluable study tool.
It was like reading about contracts of Power
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book was definitely worth reading. It brought clarity to the various covenants in the bible. I particular liked reading the promises and commandments of the New Testament/Covenant. It brought to light for me of how much authority the body of Christ could be walking in through the promises of the New Covenant. When reading about the covenants in this book, it's like reading a contract of Power. It's an excellent book, very detailed and organized.
A Must Read for Ministry and Laity Alike

It is written in the Bible that the people of God perish for lack of knowledge. The knowledge that the Word is speaking of is not the knowledge of this world, or of science, but rather knowledge of the Word of the L-rd. Reading this book, I can understand this scripture a little more deeply. In order to be a proper subject of the Kingdom of G-d, you must be familiar with the principles that the Kingdom operates by. Covenants should be the starting place because all of G-d's dealings with mankind is in the form of a Covenant. This book is an excellent study into Covenants; what they are, who they are for, what they mean, and why I need to be concerned about Covenants as a Christian. This book is for ministry and laity alike, and it should be read slowly and prayerfully. A fantastic resource for the Body of Christ.
most excellent discussion of covenants
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
You would search in vain for a better treatment of the covenants. All of the covenants are discussed with the ongoing themes of "the words of the covenant", "the blood of the covenant", and "the seal of the covenant." Bible students of all persuasions will appreciate the author's insight into these most important contracts with God Himself.
Excellent
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book gives an excellent analysis of the 9 major covenants found in scripture. It is very systematically presented and gives an brilliant overview for understanding the structure of the Bible. As a Bible school teacher myself i have done much research looking for good material on this subject, this book is by far the best one. If you want to understand the framework of the Bible and know how it all flows together this is THE book to own.
