Foundations of Covenant Theology

This course presents a comprehensive overview from Scripture on the foundations of covenant theology. Our main text is Genesis chapters 1-3, where we learn about God’s relationship to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Our course will cover a multitude of themes such as: the glory of the Triune God; the image of God and covenant; Sabbath; Eden as a mountain of worship that anticipates Zion, the realm of heavenly worship; the two trees; the fall; the promise of redemption in a second and last Adam; the garments of animal skins; the flaming sword; and union with Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit.
