The Two Main Covenants
God works covenantally. A covenant is a pact or agreement between two or more parties. In fact, the Latin word "testamentum" (Old Testament, New Testament) is the word "covenant." Following is a chart that represents the Two Covenant position. There are different interpretations of how many covenants there are, but CARM lean towards two:
| THE TWO MAIN COVENANTS | ||
COVENANT NAME | ETERNAL COVENANT ALSO CALLED | COVENANT OF GRACE |
| PARTIES INVOLVED | Father and Son (Inter Trinitarian) | God and Man |
| PROMISE | The Father would...
| Eternal life for mankind The complete restoration of fellowship between God and man.
|
| CONDITION | The Son...
| Faith in Jesus Christ |
| MEDIATOR | No Mediator | Jesus Christ |
