Segment 34: A Last Supper Together
Presenter: David Lowes Watson
The word covenant means binding in relation to God. The covenant
with God is always at God’s initiative; we respond to God’s grace.
Jeremiah prophesied a new covenant in which God’s law would
be written on every heart. Jesus Christ embodied this new covenant.
We have to let God be God by being obedient. To be obedient, we
have to be disciplined. The early Puritan movement used the word
covenant as a watchword for obedient discipleship. Christians through
the centuries have found that the best way to keep their covenant
with God is to make an agreement with one another to that end.
