Description

I would hope this book would find its way into the halls of Better Covenant Theology teaching. Better Covenant Theology (BCT) is a term and a hermeneutic for understanding the Bible, from a covenant/Kingdom perspective, which incorporates into its system historical context. Historical context causes one to know the difference in what was spoken to the original audience and what is meant for us to understand and gain wisdom from.

You and I were not the target or original audience for anything that was written by any of the writers of the old or New Testaments. Each author, who ultimately is the Holy Spirit, had as their target a specific group of people living in a specific time in history.

There is certainly application that we gain from the Scriptures, but it is important to understand that we, ourselves, were not the target audience to the things written in the Bible. We have the advantage of living at least 2000 years after it was written, with historical records to connect many things in the Scriptures. Without the advantage of knowing history, the Bible can be a strange book indeed. This is why historical context is key to understanding the Bible.

The information in this book should be used for sermons, teachings, classes and any other use that Christians may grow in Christ and understand the Bible in ways they have never understood before. I do not mind if you teach and expand on this material once you understand it. This is a piece of the New Covenant unfolding to us.

Another key to understanding the Bible is to understand covenant. Covenant has many facets, from the cutting of the covenant, the blood sacrifice used, the benefits, rules or stipulations associated with the covenant, and the goals of each party involved in the covenant. God is a God of covenant, and He seeks to operate with humanity through covenant. In fact, it can be said of the Bible, that is the written record of the covenant journey of God with mankind.
