James Jordan tackles the question of when the New Covenant began. While the answer to this question is often assumed, Jordan shows how he believes the New Covenant began after the exile in the time of the restoration. He also gives a very helpful biblical theology of time and history, and how the Bible presents time as moving from priestly, to kingly, to prophetic periods. We think you'll really be helped by it. _____ Theopolitan Ministry Conference: VISION OF VICTORY https://theopolisinstitute.com/gatherings/theopolitan-ministry-conference-vision-of-victory/ Regional Course: What Is Creation?
