Kenny's Karats #39: The Avengers: Endgame (Contract vs.Covenant)

Both parties normally know the terms of a contract before they enter into it. Being part of a covenant, however, is different. You go into it without any idea of what it will take, but you still say, "I'm in; whatever it takes." Join us for a few moments as we look at this closer here on YouTube. Find the clip at: https://youtu.be/fNsatPh8tQI .

Kenny's Karats #38: Contract (Equivalence) vs. Covenant (Superabundance)

We continue to share passages from Christopher Watkin's "Biblical Critical Theory". Today, we continu with Watkin's treatise on the difference between the two. And we ask ourselves -- are we viewing whatever we have going on with God as a contract or have we accepted His covenant with us? The differences are significant and impactful.
