– Why doesn’t Israel believe?– Is Israel still God’s covenant partner?
• Can you trust God?– Have His plans gone wrong?– What of his promises to his elect/Chosen
people?

Aims of Covenant Theology
• To stress the moral obligations of Christianity• To show God’s grace in including the Nations in
the Abrahamic blessings• To deny that Israelites received the promises
simply because they were physical descendants of Abraham
• To demonstrate the unity of the divine economy of salvation
• To explain the discontinuity between the Old and New Covenants in scripture
