Vows
- Not just words, but actions
Ecclesiastes 5:4-5 Matthew 5:33-37
- Don't make vain promises and commitments, but let your words be true
Covenant = contract
Conditional and unconditional covenants
Genesis 6:18, 9:8-17 - The first covenant goes beyond Noah
Genesis 15:18-21 - God's covenant with Abraham for his descendants
Genesis 17:1-8 - God's covenant with Abraham and his descendants
These covenants go beyond the original parties and are dependent on God, who is faithful to keep His word regardless of our faithfulness
