Deut. 28:1–6 Ps. 40:1–10 Luke 22:24–30 Heb. 10:1–10 A covenant is a “formal agreement that creates a relationship with legal aspects.” (Michael G. Brown & Zach Keele, Sacred Bond, p. 12). In this message, we look at what has become known as the Covenant of Redemption: God's eternal plan to save, restore, and redeem. It is unique because it is an agreement between the Persons of the Trinity & it was made before time.

When I fail I stay away from God for a little while because I am ashamed and am not worthy. Even though I know I am forgiven, my brain just cannot comprehend that God can forgive me over and over again for the same sin. It doesn’t seem fair to Him. 2.

Episode 617 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. I was wondering if you could offer some scriptural advice on whether or not believers should watch shows like The Chosen. On the one hand, I think that it’s a faithful representation of the character of Jesus and the disciples. And while it does take creative liberties, I don’t think any of the creative liberties contradicts what Scripture teaches. I think it does well to help us expand our imagination, about the reality that Jesus Christ was God who took on flesh and was man. On the other hand, I’m hesitant to watch something, maybe it’s my theological roots that make me concerned about something that has an image or picture of Jesus. Although I know that a lot of theological traditions do allow for visual portrayals of Jesus because He was a man, whereas, a portrayal of the Father may be transgressing. I’m curious what advice you might offer in such cases. 2. I have just recently graduated from college with a degree in Youth Ministry. I am at home right now and I get to see many friends and acquaintances from high school. Most of them, however, are not Christian. When I am around these people, I find myself being influenced by them and tempted to do and say things that are disobedient to God. I am a person who hates to miss out on things with friends, but I don’t want to be influenced by them and tempted to dishonor God. What should I do? Should I leave my old friends behind and move on? Should I still hang out with them and trust in God to keep me strong so that they may see the light of Christ living within me? 3. What do you all think of New Year’s Resolutions? I have seen some Christians say we should only desire to grow in holiness and not worry about improving our practical life, body image, finances, etc. I am just wondering if these resolutions are things we should avoid or should be encouraged to engage in? 4. I was recently in a church Bible study where the question came up of whether Jesus was tempted TO sin, that is, if he ever desired to give IN to sin, or was simply tempted BY sin, that is he was tempted in all ways—for example experiencing true, physical hunger in the wilderness—but never even considered giving in to the devil’s temptation to turn stones into bread. I hold the latter view, that scripture seems beyond a shadow of doubt that God abhors all sin—that there is nothing “attractive” about sin to him. Do you believe Jesus was ever tempted to give in to sin? Today’s Offer Bible Reading Plan Request our latest special offers here or call 1-833-THE-CORE (833-843-2673) to request them by phone.

The Lord bears up his frail saints in the righteousness of Christ to bring to His glorious Zion.

As Jacob expires from this life, his faith testifies to the blessed comfort of dying in the Lord. 

Amid the dysfunctionality of the covenant family, the Lord preserves a seed of faith within Jacob’s art of deception to make him the an heir of the promise.  

 In a world where evil seems to get the upper hand more often than not, our Lord strengthens our faith in his unfailing Word by being silent in the hour of darkness. 

Office Hours talks to Rev. Zach Keel, pastor at Escondido Orthodox Presbyterian Church in Escondido, CA, about his time at seminary and his ministry afterward.

Wisdom reminds us that when we approach God in prayer and worship that our words should be few; since, our foolish tendency is to multiply words instead of trusting in the perfect and sufficient words of Christ.

In episode 17, Lee and Chris interview Rev. Michael Brown and Rev. Zach Keele about the book they co-authored, entitled Sacred Bond: Covenant Theology Explored.  They have some very helpful ways of explaining the covenants that God made, how we fit into God's covenant drama, and how the covenants relate to justification for our assurance.  Show notes: Sacred Bond: Covenant Theology Genesis 1-3 Isaiah 24 Hosea The Covenant of Redemption The Covenant of Works The Covenant of Grace The Covenant of Common Grace The Abrahamic Covenant The Mosaic Covenant The Davidic Covenant The New Covenant Sacred Bond, pages 92-95 Genesis 15 Two-level fulfillment Romans 4 Hebrews 11 Genesis 9 Deuteronomy 28 Leviticus 26 Sacred Bond, page 114 Deuteronomy 30:1 Deuteronomy 32 Joshua Romans 8 Rev.

The Preacher of Ecclesiastes cautions us not to be overly optimistic about wisdom and its power.  Even though wisdom works well, time and chance can spoil the benefits of wisdom and a little bit of folly can destroy wisdom’s power.

The Lord comforts us through the resurrection comfort of Christ, and does this so that we may then pass this comfort on to others as they suffer.

Our great comfort is that Jesus restores us through his resurrection.

Jesus is the Living Water for our spiritual dehydration.

On this special episode of Office Hours, R. Scott Clark will discuss with Michael Brown and Zach Keele, some of the important issues addressed in their new book, Sacred Bond: Covenant Theology Explored.

The prophet Jeremiah presents a vivid picture of God's covenant love that finds its' fulfillment in the cross of Christ.

The Lord is sovereign and holy and cannot be manipulated, thereby extinguishing a syncretistic approach to worship.

Wisdom beckons us to control our insatiable desires and greed and to be content with what we have been given.

An analysis of how Christ's resurrection sheds light on one of the most controversial passages in the New Testament.

We are to follow Paul's example of being willing to forego our Christian liberty in order to gain followers of Jesus.

The Ark of the Covenant in John's vision shows that Christ's atonement purchased communion with God.

Even in one of the darkest moments of redemptive history we see the Lord's preserving work.

An analysis of one of the darkest poems in the entire Psalter.

Israel's kings were bent on idolatrous rebellion instead of living in and enjoying the new paradise they've been given.
