Bible teaching with an emphasis on Israel, prophecy and the Jewish roots of Christianity
Series: “The Covenants of God”
The covenants made by God with men and nations throughout the Bible are guideposts for understanding scripture. This series illustrates, through testimony of expert teachers and analysis of the actual verses, the great covenants of God. We now live under the last of them, the New Covenant, which will be totally fulfilled at the time of the return of our Lord.
