Bible Matrix II: The Covenant Key

Book Cover & Preview Text
Bible Matrix demonstrated that the Bible is a literary masterpiece unlike any other. Its history and influence are certainly unparalleled but its ‘fractal’ literary structure is nothing short of miraculous.
The matrix is indeed beautiful, and it answers a great many questions about the Bible. But is it of any practical use?
The purpose of this sequel is to show that behind the seven-fold Bible Matrix is God’s five-fold ‘how to’ Covenant structure.
The Bible gives us a more interesting philosophy than that held by the pagan thinkers, who never expected anything to improve. Biblical history is not a spinning top but a wheel. It is turning for the sake of going somewhere. Bible history is Man on a mission.
But the word mission is a little impersonal. This arrangement is an agreement between persons, so the Bible uses a more personal, relational word: Covenant. God’s Covenants are the initiating Words that keep history on the move.
Covenant is the key to understanding all of the Bible and all of history. Identifying this simple pattern enables every verse of Scripture to move us mentally, emotionally, and physically.

About the Book
Do you ever wish someone could explain the Old and New Covenants in five easy steps? Behind every one of God’s covenants with man is a five-fold legal treaty. God introduces Himself and defines the relationship, the methods, the possible outcomes, and the future. But God’s covenants aren’t just legal treaties; they’re personal. Covenant is God’s method of maturing man. Every covenant is a grand quest for the bittersweet wine of God’s kingdom, but that cup is only for faithful servants, men who are willing to be broken first, like bread. This simple five-fold pattern finds its origin deep in the heart of the Trinity. It not only shapes the speeches of God, but it’s also the structure behind every story in the Bible. The Covenant Key unlocks every door.
