What is
Mosaic Covenant?
Covenants
are a means that God graciously chose to relate Himself with man.
God
could execute His plan at proper times in the history of man without any
covenant.
He
is powerful to manage all events in this world from genesis to the
eschatological era according to His will and pleasure.
Still
God decided to enter into a covenant with His elected people, Abraham and his
descendents.
Thus
Yahweh stands alone, different from other gentile gods.
Yahweh
is the only God who has entered into a covenant with man.
Only
the descendents of Abraham enjoy a covenantal relationship with God.
And
He is faithful and powerful to fulfill the covenant.
It
is a challenge to all false gods of this world.
