Aim: To be faithful, by grace, to our covenant vows.
Doctrine: Covenantal promises are important to God. Liars will bear the brunt of His wrath, and sincere believers will enjoy His smile and grace.
Exegesis: The ''slippery slope'' of falsehood: hypocrites waffle on their word (vv. 8-11); false believers despise God's word (vv. 12-16); pretenders suffer the penalty of the covenant's word (vv. 17-22).
Further application: How to be faithful to the covenant God: be sure to properly fear Him, and joyfully love Him.
Key verse: v. 15 ''Then you recently turned and did what was right in My sight—every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbor; and you made a covenant before Me in the house which is called by My name.''
