We do not use the word “covenant” a lot in the Lutheran Church, but it is an important term used in Scripture. God made a covenant with Israel at Mt. Sinai. That “old covenant” was in place until Jesus came. Jesus ushed in the “new covenant” which is proclaimed in the Lord’s Supper. We will look at the meaning of the word “covenant” and contrast the old with the new, focusing on what this means for us as followers of Jesus.
