What is Covenant Creation and Why is it Critically Important?
ReDom Missions offerings
"Covenant creation is a non-concordist, or a non-material view that Genesis is a covenantal story about the creation of the Old Covenant with Israel, not the material world or planet."
Covenant Creation views the original "heavens and earth" which God made "in the beginning" (Gen. 1:1) as directly related to God's creation of the "new heaven and new earth" (Rev. 21:1). If the "end" spoken of in prophecy is the end of the old covenant order and has nothing to do with the end of the physical universe, then we think it is time to ask some very important questions:
- Does the biblical "beginning" match the biblical "end"?
- When did God introduce the old covenant order?
- Could Genesis creation speak about the beginning of the covenant world of God's relationship to his people rather than the beginning of the physical universe?
- Why would the Bible open with an account of the creation of the physical universe and then change subjects completely to close with prophecy of a covenant end?
