WLC - Answer 31 (Bob) The question forces an answer. The 'covenant of grace' referred to is described as God putting the law into their minds and writing the law upon their hearts [1] with greater penalties than the first covenant [2] This sounds more like a covenant of holiness. [3] Henceforth, covenants will be referred to as Adamic, Noahic, Abrahamic, Isaiaic, Jacobic, Mosaic, and Christian.
The Christian covenant is the fulfillment of all the other covenants.
- Adamic covenant
- Noahic covenant
- Abrahamic covenant
- Isaic covenant
- Jacobic covenant
- Mosaic covenant
- Christian covenant
