Covenant (pact, treaty, agreement, alliance) is a focus point and unifying theme in the Bible. One biblical scholar has said, "God's grace in relating to his people by initiating covenants with them is a major theme of the Bible." Covenants began with God's covenants with people and the nation Israel. The covenants found their final fulfillment in the new covenant in Jesus Christ. The Mosaic Community is a covenant community. To this day, many traditional churches have posted copies of the Church Covenant on walls, printed it in their founding documents, and even in some of their songbooks (called hymnals). While this covenant is general in terms, Mosaic's covenant specifically relates to our local community of faith. We believe a congregational covenant offers and provides: We do not encourage or recruit members from other local churches. Members of other local churches are encouraged to speak to their current church leadership before joining Mosaic. |
