The difference between TESTAMENT and COVENANT



Our faithful King James never lets us down! EVERY 'word' is pure.

The difference between TESTAMENT and COVENANT:

A testament refers to a legal document that outlines a person’s wishes AFTER THEIR DEATH. Testaments specifically address post-death matters. As the Body of Christ, we have no covenant agreements with God in this life. His grace is sufficient for us. In the 'next' life, however, we come into every spiritual blessing in Christ and an inheritance too great to comprehend.

A covenant refers to a binding agreement between two parties. It typically involves mutual commitments, promises, obligations, and rituals which involve promises DURING LIFE, though in cases can also extend into the eternal. For example, the old Mosaic law covenant applied to Israel during their life. A new covenant is necessary for the Millennial Kingdom.

Once again, the trusty KJV has it spot on correct. 🙌
