Covenant Theology is a central framework of Reformed theology that provides a unified understanding of the entire Bible through the lens of God's covenants with humanity. This course explores the theological structure and biblical foundation of Covenant Theology as it unfolds from Genesis to Revelation.
It emphasizes the three overarching covenants in the Reformed tradition: the Covenant of Redemption (intra-Trinitarian agreement to save), the Covenant of Works (between God and Adam before the Fall), and the Covenant of Grace (God's redemptive promise to sinners through Christ).
Students will examine how the covenants relate to key doctrines such as election, justification, adoption, sacraments, and the mission of the Church.
