Covenant Theology Part 5: God's Covenant of Common Grace with the World

In Part 5 we see that after the fall of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3 that God comes in judgment. But it is not final judgment! If the gospel promised in Genesis 3:15 was to be fulfilled, then final judgment must be postponed to allow for a human history so that God can save a people and wage war on the devil. So God makes a Covenant of Common Grace with all of mankind to restrain the evil of each individual and that of society to allow for the history of redemption to unfold.
