Christ Covenant Church

Listing Information:

About Christ Covenant Church...&#10Our 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.&#10Our 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&aposs covenant) Jesus, the second Adam did by keeping God&aposs law completely and graciously dying to atone for sin.&#10Our preaching and teaching is informed by these central themes of Scripture.
