A new 8 week Adult Sunday School series on Covenant Theology begins January 14, 2018 at 9 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall.  Mr. Yi Wang, a senior Westminster Seminary California student will be teaching this class. Covenant theology is a unique theological heritage from the Reformed churches since the day of Reformation. It is not only a significant Biblical concept, but an important interpretative framework to understand the flow of redemptive history. This series on Covenant theology surveys through the three overarching covenants, namely, Covenant of Redemption, Covenant of Works and Covenant of Grace, and the major biblical covenants such as Noahic Covenant, Abrahamic Covenant, Mosaic Covenant, Davidic Covenant, and finally the New Covenant. This study will help you better understand the Bible as a whole, but more importantly, it will help you appreciate more the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
