Part Two
Bibliology: 14 THE COVENANTS OF SCRIPTURE
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker

However, Chafer points out the following important fact concerning the Mosaic Covenant:

This covenant had governed Israel’s conduct as a redeemed people. It was given to them, however, not as a means of redemption or attainment unto a covenant relation to God, but because they were in a right relation to God as a redeemed nation under God’s covenant with that people descended from Abraham.³
