God's Two Major Covenants

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the importance of rightly dividing the Word of God, focusing on the distinction between God's two major covenants: the Old Covenant and the New Covenant. It clarifies that there has only ever been one covenant of eternal salvation, fulfilled through the death of Jesus Christ, while there have been two major covenants of service. The speaker stresses that believers under both covenants are saved by the same means, and highlights the allegorical teaching of Galatians 4 about the two covenants represented by Hagar and Sarah. The sermon also warns against confusing the covenants and encourages a proper understanding of scripture to avoid error.
