The Mosaic Covenant Part 1
The next major covenant God made with “man” was given through Moses on Mount Sinai. This was made possible by God choosing and sending Moses to deliver His people, Abraham’s expansive family, after 400 years of slavery in Egypt.

The good news is that, as Paul writes in Corinthians, Godly sorrow leads to repentance and salvation.
Awkward…you bet! Necessary…absolutely!
