what is the Convetant.
Bible text. Genesis 2:16-17 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
God in the beginning created man for fellowship and when man lost the power and dominion God gave to him,God had to send them out of the garden of Eden why because he had already warned them not to taste out of the tree of life and death but man in own wise eye lost the power.
But God in his infinite mercy did not want to leave man to die in his sin from their he began to send prophet to them prophet like Abraham in Genesis 17:1-10 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
What is convenant.
The Convenant Is a binding agreement between two or more people, and their seeds which is either related by blood or pregroup and is always based on some terms. that a covenant can never stand with having a term inside of it So any violation can leads to death
Convenant demand for commitment example the marriage between a man and a woman is based on some terms the day they both agree to Marry one another that day they have enter into a convenat it also require test and trails.
For Adam, the consequences of breaking the rules and convenant was death,which disconnected him from God the father, he then have to pay by tilling the ground for food,going out to hunt before he could feed his family, why because he has left the God the created him frend God is our sustainer and sustenance. Life is in the Convetant
, while death is outside the Convenant
At a point,it is important that we realized or know that covenant cannot and dose not work or run itself it will surly involve two more people involve in the covenant by taken careful heed to terms.
