About Christ Covenant Church... Our name reflect the two great themes of Scripture: Christ - He is both the central figure of the New Testament and Old Testaments (see Luke 24:13-35) and Covenant - Throughout the Bible God relates to His people by means of invoking covenants. In Genesis 3 we learn that our first parents failed to keep the covenant God made with them thus plunging themselves and all humanity into sin. Fortunately in that same chapter God initiated a covenant of grace (Gen. 3:15) to rescue sinners from His wrath. This covenant was administered by types and shadows through in the Old Testament through national Israel (Exodus 19-24). The new covenant promised in Jeremiah 31 was inaugurated by Christ in the upper room (Luke 22:20) and ratified with His blood as he hung on the cross. Our theology is also informed by the comparison the Apostle Paul makes in Romans 5 and I Corinthians 15 between Adam and Jesus Christ. In short, what the first Adam failed to do (keep God's covenant) Jesus, the second Adam did by keeping God's law completely and graciously dying to atone for sin. Our preaching and teaching is informed by these central themes of Scripture.
