О человек!
Когда-то тебя не было на этом свете. Как сказал Всевышний Аллах в Коране: «Разве человек не помнит, что еще раньше Мы создали его, хотя его вообще не было?» (19, Марйам:67).Затем Аллах сотворил тебя из небольшой капли и даровал тебе слух и зрение. «Прошло то время, когда человек пребывал в полной безвестности. Воистину, Мы создали человека из капли семени, смеси, чтобы испытать его, одарили его слухом, зрением» (76, Аль-инсан:1-2).Постепенно ты превращался из слабого ребенка в сильного юношу, а когда окреп и стал взрослым, твои силы… Читать далее →
Глен Доман: Великий и… Ужасный?..
Пожалуй, ни одна методика раннего развития не вызывала столько споров и противоречивых суждений, как система Глена Домана. Кажется, среди тех, кто хоть раз слышал об этом человеке и его школе, нет равнодушных: или – страстные и пылкие сторонники и верные последователи, или – решительные противники. Так кто же он, Глен Доман: величайший Учитель, открывший универсальный рецепт воспитания гениев или просто автор сомнительной методик, вокруг которой развернулась бурная рекламная кампания?… Полезно или вредно заниматься с ребенком по системе Домана?

Новый завет
См. раздел БИБЛИЯ
АУДИО. Новый Завет
Но́вый Заве́т —
1) Новый Завет между Богом и человеком, в отличие от Ветхого Завета, заключенный через Господа Иисуса Христа (Мф.26:28).
2) Новый Завет – часть Библии (Священного Писания).
Слово завет (евр. bêrit, греч. δι αθήκη, лат. testamentum) на языке Библии значит известное постановление, условие на котором сходятся две договаривающихся стороны, а отсюда уже сам договор или союз, а также и те внешние знаки, которые служили его удостоверением, то есть сами книги, на которых и было перенесено название завета. Прилагательное Новый (как и Ветхий) взято из самой Библии. Ветхому Завету принадлежит и пророчественное указание на «Новый Завет» в известном пророчестве Иеремии: «вот наступят дни, говорит Господь, когда я заключу с домом Израиля и с домом Иуды новый завет» (Иер. 31:31). Слово Новый Завет неоднократно употреблялось Самим Иисусом Христом и святыми апостолами для обозначения истории искупленного и облагодатствованного человечества (Мф. 21:28; Мк. 14:24; Лк. 22:20; 1Кор 11:25; 2Кор. 3:6 и др.).
В Новый Завет входит 27 священных книг: четыре Евангелия, книга Деяний Апостольских, семь Соборных Посланий, четырнадцать Посланий Апостола Павла и Апокалипсис ап. Иоанна Богослова.
По своему содержанию священные книги Нового Завета разделяются на: исторические, учительные и пророческие. Исторические книги – это четыре Евангелия: Матфея, Марка, Луки и Иоанна и книга Деяний Апостольских. Учительные книги – это послания апостольские, представляющие собою письма, написанные апостолами к разным церквям. Пророческая книга в Новом Завете – это Апокалипсис ап. Иоанна Богослова, где пророчески предвидится судьба Церкви Христовой до Второго Пришествия Иисуса Христа.
Новый Завет первоначально был зафиксирован на общем для Римской империи языке – греческом, причём в самой его простой, разговорной форме (койнэ), хотя, по свидетельству Папия Иерапольского, первый вариант Евангелия по Матфею был написан на еврейском (или арамейском) языке.
3) Так называют период времени от Рождества Христова и доныне.
90000 Difference Between Covenant and Contract 90001 90002 90003 The difference between covenant and contract is evident when someone breaks either one of the agreements.3 min read 90004 90005 90006 The difference between covenant and contract is evident when someone breaks either one of the agreements. A contract is invalid when one of the involved parties violates it. On the other hand, a covenant remains intact even if one of the parties breach it. While covenants are a type of contract, they are not treated the same nor are they built on the same premise.Here are the differences between contracts and covenants. 90005 90008 Contracts: Introduction 90009 90006 Contracts are agreements enforceable by law. There are critical components to a valid agreement. 90005 90012 90013 It must have an offer and the offer accepted. 90014 90013 It must have valuable consideration. Meaning the parties are exchanging something that is equally valuable to the other. 90014 90013 Both parties must have the legal and mental capacity to enter into a contract.90014 90013 One party can not force the other party to sign a contract. 90014 90013 The consideration offered is legal. 90014 90023 90006 While it is easier to prove a written contract, oral contracts are valid as well. A contract says, «Do this for me, and I’ll do that for you.» Verbal agreements are a part of everyone’s day-to-day life. Here are some examples: 90005 90012 90013 You ask an employee to work on a holiday, and in exchange, you give the employee two extra vacation days.90014 90013 You give your teenager extra allowance for vacuuming your car. 90014 90013 You give your wife some jewelry if she lets you go out-of-town with your friends. 90014 90023 90008 Covenants: Introduction 90009 90006 A covenant is a written promise between two or more parties where the party either pledges to do something (called an affirmative covenant) or refrains from doing something (call a negative covenant). A covenant is a type of contract. In a covenant, the person making the promise is the covenantor, and the person to who is benefits from the promise is a covenantee.90005 90006 Covenants are often included in contracts when that happens it becomes part of the agreement. Usually, real property contracts cover covenants. Covenants attached to real property are real covenants. Primarily, they protect people’s right to enjoy their property, disruption-free. A covenant defines a relationship by setting rules to the engagement. 90005 90008 Covenant and the Law: Background 90009 90006 Many business people fail to understand the differences between covenants, representations, and warranties.90005 90012 90013 A covenant is a promise made by two or more people (a party) vowing to do or not to do something. 90014 90013 A representation is a factual statement that entices a party to enter into an agreement. 90014 90013 A warranty is a statement certifying certain things about the contract’s subject holds true, and should it become untrue, the affected party has protection from the loss. 90014 90023 90008 Contracts vs. Covenants: Comparison 90009 90006 Contracts and covenants are not the same things.Here are some fundamental differences: 90005 90012 90013 While a contract is legally binding, a covenant is a spiritual agreement. 90014 90013 A contract is an agreement between parties while a covenant is a pledge. 90014 90013 A covenant is an agreement you can break while a covenant is a perpetual promise. 90014 90013 You seal a covenant while you sign a contract. 90014 90013 A contract is a mutually beneficial relationship while a covenant is something you fulfill.90014 90013 A contract exchanges one good for another, while a covenant is giving oneself to the other. 90014 90013 You can opt out of a contract while a covenant is about having the strengths to hold up your part of the promise. 90014 90013 One can stop paying in a contract when one party is not fulling their part in a deal. However, in a covenant, the party not getting their needs me supports the failing party so that they can meet their obligations. 90014 90023 90006 Overall a covenant is a better way to build relationships both in business and in life.In a contract, if a person does not fulfill his obligation, then it gives the other party to back out as well. The same is not true in a covenant. You must hold up your promise even if others do not hold up their pledge. 90005 90006 Covenants are a type of contract, but they do not work like a contract. They are a trust-based promise that relies on your integrity and discipline. While contracts are enforceable by the courts, covenants depend on your values. 90005 90006 If you need help with writing a covenant, you can post your legal need on UpCounsel’s marketplace.UpCounsel accepts only the top 5 percent of lawyers to its site. Lawyers on UpCounsel come from law schools such as Harvard Law and Yale Law and average 14 years of legal experience, including work with or on behalf of companies like Google, Menlo Ventures, and Airbnb. 90005 .90000 Covenant by R.C. Sproul from What Is Reformed Theology? 90001 90002 Lecture 6, Covenant: 90003 90004 Are we as Christians saved by works, or by faith alone? The key to understanding what part works and faith play in the drama of redemption is to understand the biblical structure and role of covenants. Without a proper understanding of covenants we fail to grasp the grandeur of Christ’s life and work. In this message, Dr. Sproul gives us the covenantal framework of redemption that finds full resolution in the work of Christ.90005 90002 Message Transcript 90003 90004 We continue now with our study of the heart of Reformed theology. I want to turn our attention today to the concept of covenant. 90005 90002 The Framework for Redemption 90003 90004 One of the frequent nicknames that we hear used to define Reformed theology is the term 90013 covenant theology 90014. I almost never use that designation, not that I’m opposed to it for any particular reason, but just because I think it can be a little misleading.All Christians recognize that the concept of covenant is front and center in both Testaments. When we talk about the Old Testament and the New Testament, we are talking about the old covenant and the new covenant, and we’re all aware of the covenant language that is sprinkled throughout the Scriptures. 90005 90004 We hear about a lot of covenants in the Old Testament. We hear about the covenant that God made with Noah with the sign of the rainbow in the sky, the covenant with Abraham with the sign of circumcision, and the covenant at Sinai with Moses.We hear of Jeremiah speaking about a new covenant, and we know that in the upper room when our Lord celebrated the Passover with His disciples the night before His execution, He instituted the new covenant. He spoke of the new covenant in His blood (Luke 22:20). 90005 90004 So, we have this repeated motif of covenant in Scripture, but the reason Reformed theology is often called «covenantal» is because it sees the structure of covenant in the Bible as a crucial element in which the whole plan of redemption is worked out.It becomes a kind of key to understanding and interpreting the whole of Scripture. Because of that, Reformed theology stresses this central motif of covenant as the framework in which redemption is carried out. 90005 90002 Three Chief Covenants 90003 90004 In theological categories, and in terms of historic confessions, Reformed churches have a tendency to distinguish among three chief covenants. The first is called the «covenant of redemption,» the second is called the «covenant of works,» and the third is called the «covenant of grace.»I want to give a brief exposition of the distinctive characteristics of these three covenants. 90005 90004 Normally, we think of a covenant as an agreement between two or more parties. We have covenants in our own culture. The form of government that we have has historically been called a social contract or a social covenant that involves the consent of the governed. There is an agreement between the government and the people, and there are certain stipulations that define that relationship, which we see in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.We institutionalize and consecrate marriages today on the basis of covenants-promises are made, terms are agreed to, and so on. There is also the business covenant or the industrial contract. When labor and management are hammering out a new contract, they’re dealing with a covenant-an agreement that imposes obligations on both parties. 90005 90004 When we look at the biblical covenants, the first covenant that we delineate is not a covenant that directly and immediately involves people. 90005 90002 Unity of Purpose: The Covenant of Redemption 90003 90004 The covenant of redemption is a theological concept that refers to the harmony and unity of purpose that has been in existence from all eternity in terms of the mutual relationship and agreement between all three persons of the Trinity.God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are agreed from all eternity in terms of bringing forth the work of redemption. 90005 90004 We distinguish among the persons of the Godhead in terms of the specific tasks they perform in the outworking of redemption. We read in John 3:16, «God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him would not perish but have everlasting life.» 90005 90004 The language of John 3:16 is significant. We do not say, and the New Testament does not say, that Christ so loved the world that He persuaded the Father to forgive them of their sins.That is, the Father sends the Son into the world. The Son does not send the Father into the world. It is the Father who designs the plan of redemption and who initiates the work of redemption by sending His only begotten Son into the world to perform His redemptive work as our Savior and our Mediator. 90005 90004 The Nicene Creed of the fourth century confesses that, after Christ performed His redemptive work and ascended into heaven, the Father and the Son together sent the Holy Ghost into the world to apply the work of Christ to God’s people.So, the Father first sends the Son, and the Father and the Son together send the Holy Spirit. 90005 90004 Now, this can be misleading, because we know that the atonement, for example, is ascribed to the Son, not to the Father or the Holy Spirit. And we know that the process of sanctification is assigned to the work of the Holy Spirit, not to the Father or the Son. However, it’s not as if the Father and the Son are completely uninvolved in our sanctification. The whole of creation is a Trinitarian work, and the whole of redemption is a Trinitarian work.The whole personal dimension of the Godhead is involved in all of it. 90005 90004 The point of spelling out the covenant of redemption is to avoid the error that has occurred more than once in church history of thinking that the Father and the Son are at odds with each other. It is to avoid the error that the Son has to persuade this angry Father to turn away His wrath from the Son, as if it were not God the Father’s gracious idea in the first place. It is also to avoid the idea that Christ is performing His work grudgingly.He comes to Gethsemane and prays to the Father, «Let this cup pass from Me,» and then goes on to say, «Nevertheless, not my will but Thine be done» (Luke 22:42). It’s not as if the Son says, «If I have to do it, I’ll do it.» Rather, He’s saying, «If this is what pleases the Father then it is My meat and drink to do the will of the Father.» 90005 90004 The whole point of the covenant of redemption is to show the complete unity and agreement of the Godhead from all eternity with respect to the plan of salvation.90005 90002 Standard of Law: The Covenant of Works 90003 90004 When we get into the distinction between the covenant of works and the covenant of grace, that engenders a little more controversy. But what is chiefly in view is this: the covenant of works in Reformed theology refers to the initial covenant that God makes with man 90013 qua 90014 man, with Adam and Eve in Paradise. Adam is representing not just himself and his wife, but his progeny-all people. He is Adam; he represents mankind.90005 90004 God creates Adam and Eve and puts them in a situation of probation. He makes promises of blessing to them in the event that they are obedient and promises of judgment upon them in the event that they are disobedient. He puts them to the test, as it were, saying, «The day that you eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil you shall surely die» (Gen. 2:17). That is, penalties are pronounced to the creatures in the event that they transgress the commandment of their Creator. 90005 90004 This all means that the destiny of Adam, Eve, and their progeny is determined by their response to the law of God.It is determined by their behavior, by their work. Hence, it is called the «covenant of works.» God says, «If you do good works, you’ll live; if you do bad works, you’ll die. » It’s that simple. 90005 90004 Some people do not like the distinction between the covenant of works and the covenant of grace. They say: «God did not have to make a covenant at all with Adam and Eve. The very fact that He stooped to enter into a personal relationship with them and gave them the opportunity for eternal life of blessedness in His kingdom was itself gracious.»And I do not think there’s any dispute about that. Obviously, God was not morally compelled to give a way of salvation at all to His creatures. We grant that even the covenant of works is grounded in God’s eternally gracious character. 90005 90004 What is meant by the distinction between the covenant of works and the covenant of grace is that, initially, the terms of their relationship with God are set up with respect to obedience or disobedience to His law. And Adam and Eve disobeyed. They violated the covenant of works, bringing the judgment of God upon themselves and all whom they represented because they violated covenant of creation.90005 90002 A World Populated by Covenant Breakers 90003 90004 Let me just take a second to give a little parenthesis here. We understand that we live in a culture where there are all different kinds of competing religions and secular people who have no time for religion at all. They could not be less interested in the whole idea of covenant. People ask me, «Are these people in God’s covenant?» Well, the question is first, «Are these people, people?» And if we answer that question, «Yes, of course, these people are people,» then the next question is, «When God made His covenant in creation, was it with a view to everybody in the world or just two isolated individuals that lived in a pretty garden in Eden? » 90005 90004 The biblical idea is that the covenant God made with Adam and Eve was a covenant with all of the human race.People can deny that covenant; people can repudiate that covenant; people can despise that covenant-but what they can not do is get rid of it. They can not annul it. 90005 90004 One of the reasons Scripture brings all of us before the judgment seat of God and pronounces us guilty before God is because all of us have broken His law. All of us have done bad works. All of us have failed to keep the original covenant of creation. All of us have failed to perform what it is every creature’s duty to perform-to glorify God, to honor Him as God, to be grateful to Him, and to obey His law.90005 90004 The bottom line is that the whole world is populated by covenant breakers. Christ is sent into a world that is already guilty before the Father for breaking the Father’s law and for violating the very terms of human existence, the very basis for human life as we were created before God. That’s what is meant when we talk about the covenant of works. 90005 90002 Undeserved Redemption: The Covenant of Grace 90003 90004 Because the first Adam failed in the covenant of works, God would have had every moral right on that occasion to do exactly what the terms of the covenant promised.He could have destroyed them and the whole race, and that would have been it. But instead, He condescended to cover their nakedness and to promise them redemption through One who would act as their Savior. At that point, God instituted the covenant of grace. It was given to Abraham, to Moses, and throughout the Old Testament. The promise was that God would redeem His people who were guilty according to the covenant of works. He would save His people in another way. 90005 90004 That is critical because there are professing Christians today who believe that there is a fundamental difference between how God saved people in the Old Testament and how people are saved during and after the New Testament.They believe this despite Paul’s laboring the point in the third, fourth, and fifth chapters of Romans, using Abraham as his illustration, that salvation was accomplished in the Old Testament by grace just as it is in the New Testament, and that Abraham was justified not by the works of the law but by faith in the promised Messiah. 90005 90004 The difference is one between promise and fulfillment. The people in the Old Testament looked to the future promised Redeemer, put their trust in Him, and were justified by faith in Him.We look backward to the work that has been accomplished by the Savior. We put our trust in Him. Salvation is basically the same now as it was then. The difference is that we have a much deeper understanding of the details of it. What is even more different is that it is a 90013 fait accompli 90014. The work of Christ has been already performed on the plain of history. 90005 90004 Once a person breaks the covenant of works, the only way he can possibly be restored to fellowship with God is by God’s mercy, not by His justice-by His grace, not by our works.90005 90004 This is crucial because we live in a day where people still entertain the idea that they can be saved in the presence of God by their own works, that they can still merit their way into the kingdom. We do not really believe that we are debtors who can not pay our debt. We forget that the terms of the covenant of works were pretty stiff. They demand perfection. If you sin once, there’s nothing you can do to make up for that. Once that blemish comes next to your name, you can not become perfect again.Perfection does not allow for the slightest blemish. Of course, when we come before God, we come with a lot more than a slight blemish; we come with a radical kind of pollution before Him. 90005 90004 So, this distinction between the covenant of works and the covenant of grace is really designed to shed clear light on the nature of the gospel. 90005 90002 Works and Works Alone 90003 90004 Now, I’m going to say something that’s probably going to confuse everybody. We’ve been talking about the doctrine of justification by faith alone, that it’s only by grace that we’re saved, and so on.But, in the final analysis, the only way any person is ever justified before God is by works. We are saved by works, and we are saved by works alone. Let me explain. 90005 90004 When I say that the only way we’re saved is by works, this is what I mean: the covenant of grace must be distinguished from the covenant of works but never separated from it. The covenant of grace is God’s covenant that He institutes to ensure that the original covenant is finally kept. 90005 90004 When I say that we’re justified by works and by works alone, I mean that the grounds of my justification and the grounds of your justification are the perfect works of Jesus Christ.We’re saved by works, but they are not our own. That’s why we say we’re saved by faith and we’re saved by grace, because the works that save us are not our works; they are somebody else’s works-somebody who submitted Himself at every point to the covenant of works. 90005 90002 Works Fulfilled and Grace Given 90003 90004 The New Testament describes Jesus as the New Adam. He is the new humanity who accomplishes what Adam failed to accomplish. By one man’s disobedience, the world is plunged into ruin, and by the other man’s obedience to the law of God, in all of its demands and in perfect conformity, Christ redeems His people by winning the blessings God had promised to His original creatures on their behalf.90005 90004 I’m saved by grace insofar as the work that saves me is not my own. I’m saved by works in the sense that the basis of my salvation is the work of the perfect Worker, the One who from all eternity was willing to assume the burden of God’s creatures. He was willing to come to this world to submit Himself to the terms of the original covenant of works and to fulfill it by His perfect obedience, and God gives to His people all of the benefits of that work. He gives to us all that Christ has earned, and all that He is becomes ours when we place our trust in Him.90005 90004 That’s what we mean by the covenant of grace. It’s not as if the covenant of works is the Old Testament and the covenant of grace is the New Testament. No, the covenant of grace is working ever since the third chapter of Genesis. It is all through the Old Testament and into the New because it is based upon God’s free grace to needy sinners. 90005 90004 90005 90004 90013 This transcript has been lightly edited for readability. 90014 90005 90106 .90000 What You Need to Know 90001 90002 90003 A covenant refers to any type of promise or contract, whether it is made in writing or orally, whereby either party stipulates for the truth of certain facts.10 min read 90004 90005 90006 Covenant 90007 90008 90009 A covenant generally refers to any type of promise or contract, 90010 whether it is made in writing or orally. In a more technical sense, a covenant is an agreement between two or more persons, entered into in writing and under seal, whereby either party: 90005 90012 90013 Stipulates for the truth of certain facts.90014 90013 Promises to perform or give something to the other. 90014 90013 Promises to abstain from the performance of certain things. 90014 90019 90008 90009 A covenant differs from an express assumpsit in that the former may be made verbally or in writing not under seal, while the latter must always be entered into by deed 90010. In an assumpsit, a consideration must be shown, while in a covenant, no consideration is necessary to give it validity, even in a court of equity.90005 90006 General Requisites of a Covenant 90007 90008 The general requisites of a covenant include: 90005 90012 90013 90009 Proper parties: The parties must be legally able to enter into a contract. If either for want of understanding, as in the case of a person who is mentally incapacitated, an infant, where the contract is not for the benefit, or where there is understanding, the parties are not proper. All parties must owe to certain causes as coverture. In every case, if the parties are not competent, they can not bind themselves.90010 90014 90013 90009 Words of agreement: There must be an agreement. The assent or consent must be mutual. If either party withheld assent to any of its terms, the agreement would be incomplete. The assent of the parties to a contract necessarily supposes a free, fair, serious exercise of the reasoning faculty. If from any cause this free assent is not given, the contract is not binding. 90010 90014 90013 90009 A legal purpose: A covenant against any positive law or public policy is void, generally speaking.An example of the first is a covenant by one man that he will rob another or a covenant by a merchant or tradesman that he will not follow his occupation or calling. This, if it be unlimited, is absolutely void, but if the covenant be that he shall not pursue his business in a particular place, such as that he will not trade in the city of Philadelphia, the covenant is no longer against public policy. 90010 90014 90013 90009 A proper form: To make a covenant it must, according to the definition above given, be by deed or under seal.No particular form of words is necessary to make a covenant, but any words which manifest the intention of the parties, with respect to the subject matter of the contract, are sufficient. 90010 90014 90019 90008 In some states, statutes declared that the words grant, bargain and sell shall amount to a covenant that the grantor was seized of an estate in fee, free from all encumbrances done or suffered by him, and for quiet enjoyment against his acts. However, it has been adjudged that those words in the Pennsylvania Statute of 1715 did not amount to a general warranty, but merely to a covenant that the grantor had not done any act, nor created any encumbrance whereby the estate might be defeated.This decision was applied equally to the statutory language in the other states. 90005 90006 Types of Covenants 90007 90008 90009 The two main types of covenants are: 90010 90005 90008 An express covenant, or a covenant in fact, is one that is expressly agreed upon between the parties and inserted in the deed. The law does not require any particular language to form an express covenant. The word «covenant» is therefore not indispensably requisite. Other terms are held to be covenants as well, such as: 90005 90012 90013 I oblige 90014 90013 I agree 90014 90013 I bind myself to pay so much on such a day 90014 90013 Words of a bond 90014 90019 90008 However, words that merely import an order or direction that other persons should pay a sum of money, are not considered covenants.90005 90008 An implied covenant is one which the law intends and implies, though it be not expressed in words. Some words do not serve to create an express covenant but can have similar operations when used in certain contracts. These may be referred to as covenants in law. They are as effectually binding on the parties as if expressed in the most unequivocal terms. A few examples include: 90005 90012 90013 If a lessor demise and grant to his lessee a house or lands for a certain term, the law will imply a covenant on the part of the lessor, that the lessee shall during the term quietly enjoy the same against all incumbrances.90014 90013 When the words «grant,» «grant and demise,» «demise,» or «demiserunt,» are used in a lease, they are instances of implied covenants. 90014 90013 The words «yielding and paying» in a lease imply a covenant on the part of lessee that they will pay the rent. 90014 90019 90008 Another type of covenant is a real covenant, which has for its object something annexed to, or inherent in, or connected with land or other property. A real covenant, which necessarily runs with the land, as to pay rent, not to cut timber and the like, is said to be an inherent covenant.A real covenant runs with the land and descends to the heir. It is also transferred to a purchaser. Such covenants are said to run with the land, so that he who has the one is subject to the other. 90005 90008 Covenants for Title 90005 90008 90009 There are five covenants for title: 90010 90005 90012 90013 90009 Covenant for seisin. 90010 90014 90013 90009 That the grantor has the perfect right to convey. 90010 90014 90013 90009 That the grantee shall quietly possess and enjoy the premises without interruption, called a covenant for quiet enjoyment.90010 90014 90013 90009 The covenant against encumbrances. 90010 90014 90013 90009 The covenant for further assurance. 90010 90014 90019 90008 Additionally, there is another type of covenant frequently resorted to in the United States, which is often relied on more than any other, called the covenant of warranty. 90005 90008 A personal covenant relates only to matters personal, which distinguishes them from real, and is binding on the covenantor during life, and on his personal representatives after his decease, in respect of his assets.According to Sir William Blackstone, a personal covenant may be transformed into a real covenant by the mere circumstance of the heirs being named and having assets by descent from the covenantor. A covenant is personal in that the covenantor is bound to fulfill the covenant himself, such as to teach an apprentice. 90005 90008 Personal covenants are also said to be transitive and intransitive. Transitive covenants refer to when the duty of performing them passes to the covenantor’s representatives.Intransitive covenants are limited to himself, such as in the case of teaching an apprentice. 90005 90006 Covenant Classes 90007 90008 As they impact each other in the same deed, 90009 covenants may be divided into several classes: 90010 90005 90012 90013 Dependent covenants are those in which the performance of one depends on the performance of the other. There may be conditions which must be performed before the other party is liable to an action on his covenant. To determine whether covenants are dependent or not, the intention of the parties is to be sought for and regarded rather than the order or time in which the acts are to be done, or the structure of the instrument, or the arrangements of the covenant.90014 90013 Concurrent covenants are mutual conditions to be performed at the same time. In these cases, when one party is ready and offers to perform his part, and the other refuses or neglects to perform his, he who is ready and offers has fulfilled his engagement and may maintain an action for the default of the other, though it is not certain that either is obliged to do the first act. 90014 90013 Covenants are independent or mutual, when either party may recover damages from the other for the injury he may have received by a breach of the covenants in his favor, and when it is no excuse for the defendant to allege a breach of the covenants on the part of the plaintiff.90014 90019 90008 90009 Covenants are affirmative and negative. 90010 90005 90012 90013 An affirmative covenant is one by which the covenantor binds himself that something has already been done or shall be performed hereafter. Such a covenant will not deprive a man of a right lawfully enjoyed by him independently of the covenant, such as if the lessor agreed with the lessee that he shall have thorns for hedges growing upon the land, by assignment of the lessor’s bailiff; here no restraint is imposed upon the exercise of that liberty which the law allows to the lessee, and therefore he may take hedge-bote without assignment.90014 90013 A negative covenant is one where the party binds himself that he has not performed and will not perform a certain act, such as that he will not encumber. Such a covenant can not be said to be performed until it becomes impossible to break it. On this ground, the courts are unwilling to construe a covenant of this kind to be a condition precedent. In one example, a tailor assigned his trade to the defendant and covenanted to desist from carrying on the said business with any of the customers.The defendant, in consideration of the performance thereof, covenanted to pay him a life annuity of some amount. It was held that if the words «in consideration of the performance thereof,» should be deemed to amount to a condition precedent, the plaintiff would never obtain his annuity because as at any time during his life he might exercise his former trade, until his death it could never be ascertained whether he had performed the covenant or not. The defendant, on a breach by plaintiff, might have his remedy by a cross-action of covenant.There is also a difference between a negative covenant, which is only in affirmance of an affirmative covenant precedent, and a negative covenant which is additional to the affirmative covenant. To a covenant of the former class a plea of performance generally is good, but not to the latter; the defendant in that case must plead specially. 90014 90019 90006 Joint and Several Covenants 90007 90008 In regard to the parties who are to perform them, nd the decision will equally apply to the statutory language in the other states,) 90005 90012 90013 A joint covenant is one by which several parties agree to perform or do a thing together.In this case, although there are several covenantors. there is but one contract. If the covenant is broken, all the covenantors living must be sued. Sincethere is not a separate obligation of each, they can not be sued separately. 90014 90013 A several covenant is one entered into by one person only. It frequently happens that a number of persons enter into the same contract, and that each binds himself to perform the whole of it. In such a case, when the contract is under seal, the covenantors are severally bound for the performance of it.The terms usually employed to make a several covenant are «severally» or «each of us.» In practice, it is common for the parties to bind themselves jointly and severally, and then the covenant is both joint and several. 90014 90019 90006 Executed and Executory Covenants 90007 90012 90013 An executed covenant is one which relates to an act already performed. 90014 90013 An executory covenant is one to be performed at a future time. 90014 90019 90006 Obligatory or Declaratory Covenants 90007 90012 90013 An obligatory covenant is one which is binding on the party himself, and shall never be construed to raise a use.90014 90013 A declaratory covenant is one which serves to limit and direct uses. 90014 90019 90006 Principal and Auxiliary Covenants 90007 90012 90013 A principal covenant is one which relates directly to the principal matter of the contract entered into between the parties. For example, party A may covenant to serve party B for one year. 90014 90013 An auxiliary covenant is one that does not relate directly to the principal matter of the contract between the parties, but relates to something connected with it.For example, party A may covenant with party B that party C will perform his covenant to serve him for one year. In this case, if the principal covenant is void, the auxiliary is discharged. 90014 90019 90006 Legal or Illegal Covenants 90007 90012 90013 90009 A legal covenant is one not forbidden by law 90010. Covenants of this kind are always binding on the parties. 90014 90013 90009 An illegal covenant is one forbidden by law, 90010 either expressly or by implication.A covenant entered into that is in violation of the express provision of a statute is absolutely void. A covenant is also void if it is of an immoral nature, such as a covenant for future illicit intercourse and cohabitation or against public policy. It is also illegal if the covenant is in restraint of trade, when the restraint is general or fraudulent between the parties. 90014 90019 90008 In the disjunctive or alternative, covenants are those which give the covenantor the choice of doing, or the covenantee the choice of having performed, one of two or more things at his election.One example is making a covenant to make a lease to Titus or pay him one hundred dollars on the fourth day of July, as the covenantor or the covenantee shall prefer. 90005 90008 Collateral covenants concern some collateral thing, which does not at all or not so immediately relates to the thing granted. For example, a collateral covenant might be to pay a sum of money in gross that the lessor shall distrain for rent on some other land than that which is demised or the like. These covenants are also termed covenants in gross.90005 90008 Remedies are instituted for the recovery of damages for the breach of a covenant or promise under seal. 90005 90008 The subject will be considered with the following references: 90005 90012 90013 To the kind of claim or obligation on which this action may be maintained. 90014 90013 The form of the declaration. 90014 90013 The plea. 90014 90013 The judgment. 90014 90019 90008 In order to support this action, there must be a breach of a promise under seal.Such promise may be contained in a deed-poll, or indenture, or be express or implied by law from the terms of the deed, or for the performance of something in the future, or that something has been done. In some cases, though it relates to something in the present, the covenantor has a good title. In general, a covenant will not lie on a contract inpresenti, as on a covenant to stand seized or that a certain horse shall henceforth be the property of another. The action of covenant is the peculiar remedy for the non-performance of a promise under seal where the damages are unliquidated.The action may also depend on the amount on the opinion of a jury, in which case neither debt nor assumpsit can be supported. However, the covenant, as well as the action of debt, may be maintained upon a single bill for a sum certain. When the breach of the covenant amounts to misfeasance, the covenantee has a choice to proceed by the action of a covenant or by action on the case for a tort, as against a lessee for waste, but this has been questioned. When the contract under seal has been enlarged by parol, the substituted agreement will be considered together with the original agreement as a simple contract.90005 90008 The declaration must state that the contract was under seal and it should make proffer of it or show some excuse for the omission. It is generally not required to state the consideration of the defendant’s promise because a contract under seal usually imports a consideration. However, when the performance of the consideration constitutes a condition precedent, such performance must be averred. Only so much of the deed and covenant should be set forth as is essential to the cause of action.Although it is usual to declare in the words of the deed, each covenant may be stated as to its legal effect. The breach may be in the negative of the covenant generally or, according to the legal effect, and sometimes in the alternative and several breaches may be assigned at common law. If damages are the object of the suit, they should be laid sufficient to cover the real amount. 90005 90008 No strict or general issue exists in this action, though the plea of non est factum has been said to be the general issue.However, this plea only puts in issue the fact of scaling the deed. Non infregit conventionem and nil debet have both been held to be insufficient. 90005 90008 The judgment is that the plaintiff recovers a named sum for his damages, which he has sustained by reason of the breach or breaches of covenant, together with costs. 90005 .90000 What is the Edenic covenant? 90001 90002 Question: «What is the Edenic covenant?» 90003 Answer: 90004 90005 The Edenic Covenant is the covenant that God made with Adam in the Garden of Eden. This covenant is also sometimes called the «Covenant of Works» and is the first covenant that God made directly with man. 90003 In Scripture we see two different types of covenants that God makes with people. Some are unconditional covenants, which God will keep regardless of human actions. Others are conditional in that the people must obey the terms of the covenant in order to receive the promises related to it.The Edenic Covenant is an example of a conditional covenant because Adam was required to obey the terms of the covenant in order to not suffer the consequences of breaking it. 90004 90003 The Edenic Covenant, or Covenant of Works, can be found in the opening chapters of Genesis where God makes some conditional promises to Adam. The Edenic Covenant is not explicitly called a covenant in Genesis; however, it is later referred to as a covenant in Hosea 6: 7, «But like Adam they transgressed the covenant; there they dealt faithlessly with me «(ESV).90004 90003 While some theologians will list as many as six different obligations that Adam was to keep, the heart of Edenic Covenant is really God’s command to Adam to not eat from «the tree of the knowledge of good and evil» (Genesis 2:16 -17). That command sets forth God’s promise as well as the penalty if Adam disobeys. 90004 90003 In the Edenic Covenant, God promises Adam life and blessing, but that promise is conditional upon Adam’s obedience to God’s command not to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2: 16-17).Adam’s penalty for disobedience would be physical and spiritual death as well as a curse on the ground so that Adam would have to work harder to grow crops. One of the results of Adam’s sin was that he would have to toil all of his days until his death (Genesis 4: 17-19). 90004 90003 This covenant plays an important part in the unfolding of God’s plan of redemption, as it shows humans ‘inability to maintain a right relationship with God even when they are in the earthly paradise that God created for them.90004 90003 Adam’s sin broke this conditional covenant with God and left humanity in a fallen state, but God would soon make a second, unconditional covenant of redemption with Adam and Eve (Genesis 3: 14-24). Like the Edenic Covenant, this one is not explicitly referred to as a covenant in Genesis, but it is a significant promise that God makes to humanity. It is the first promise of redemption and the first promise of Christ’s coming (Genesis 3:15). Here, only three chapters into this remarkable book, God is already giving us hope of a Redeemer.Genesis 3:15 is sometimes referred to as the protevangelium, the first announcement of the gospel in Scripture. God’s promise to Eve that the seed of the serpent would bruise the heel of the seed of Eve and the seed of Eve would bruise the head of the seed of the serpent, is the foretelling that Satan would wound Christ on the cross, but that Christ would triumph over Satan on that same cross. 90004 90003 Both the Edenic Covenant and the Covenant of Redemption that follows are significant for several reasons.First of all, they establish a pattern to be repeated throughout the Scriptures: 1) humanity sins, 2) God judges the sin, and 3) God bestows grace and mercy by providing a way to redeem humanity and restore it’s relationship with God. Second, the covenants show us that sin always has consequences. Understanding the different covenants in the Old Testament and their relation to each other is important in understanding God’s covenantal relationship with His chosen people as well as His plan of redemption as revealed in Scripture.90004.
