Synopsis

Discover the heart of the Covenant and what it means for daily faith.

This accessible study explores how God’s promises shape surrender, obedience, and a Spirit-led life. By looking at the New Covenant as a living, internal work of the Holy Spirit, it invites readers to trust more deeply and live more fully in grace. In clear, practical language, the book shows how belief, beyond mere rule-keeping, opens the way to a life warmed by God’s presence. It contrasts a self-reliant approach to Scripture with the New Covenant’s inward transformation, where the Spirit writes God’s law on the heart and guides every step.

  • Learn how faith, not force, begins the journey into covenant life.
  • See why the Bible is described as the Book of the Covenant and how to read it rightly.
  • Explore the phrase “Nothing of myself” as a path to surrender and growth.
  • Understand the role of the Holy Spirit in making God’s promises real in daily living.
Ideal for readers looking for a practical, faith-filled guide to living under God’s promises and discovering authentic obedience. Living the Covenant: How God’s promise shapes daily faith, surrender, and Spirit-led obedience.

Introduction
It is often said that the great aim of the preacher ought to be to translate Scripture truth from its Jewish form into the language and the thought of the nineteenth century, and so to make it intelligible and acceptable to our ordinary Christians. It is to be feared that the experiment will do more harm than good. In the course of the translation the force of the original is lost. The scholar who trusts to translations will never become a master of the language he wants to learn. A race of Christians will be raised up, to whom the language of God's Word, and with that the God who spoke it, will be strange. In the Scripture words not a little of Scripture truth will be lost. For the true Christian life nothing is so healthful and invigorating as to have each man come and study for himself the very words in which the Holy Ghost has spoken.
One of the words of Scripture, which is almost going out of fashion, is the word Covenant. There was a time when it was the keynote o

Excerpt from The Two Covenants: And the Second Blessing

It is often said that the great aim of the preacher ought to be to translate Scripture truth from its Jewish form into the language and the thought of the nineteenth century, and so to make it intelligible and acceptable to our ordinary Christians. It is to be feared that the experiment will do more harm than good. In the course of the translation the force of the original is lost. The scholar who trusts to translations will never become a master of the language he wants to learn. A race of Christians will be raised up, to whom the language of God's Word, and with that the God who spoke it, will be strange. In the Scripture words not a little of Scripture truth will be lost. For the true Christian life nothing is so healthful and invigorating as to have each man come and study for himself the very words in which the Holy Ghost has spoken.

One of the words of Scripture, which is almost going out of fashion, is the word Covenant.
