Covenant at Sinai in Force Today

The covenant that God made with His people at Sinai is to be our refuge and defense. The Lord said to Moses: “Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto Myself. Now therefore, if ye will obey My voice indeed, and keep My covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto Me above all people: for all the earth is Mine: And ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation.... And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words.... And all the people answered together, and said, All that the Lord hath spoken we will do” (Exodus 19:3-8). 1MR 122.1

This covenant is of just as much force today as it was when the Lord made it with ancient Israel. The Southern Watchman, March 1, 1904, p. 142. (“Hold Fast the Faith”) 1MR 122.2
