It is with joy we announce the release of “God’s Covenant People: Enforcing Kingdom Mandate” written by Vincent Oshin.

“God’s Covenant People: Enforcing Kingdom Mandate” explores the biblical concept of blood covenant
against the backdrop of blood covenant in African indigenous religion/traditional societies and its
pervading influence on African Christian thoughts. In seeking to separate the traditional concept and
practice from its variant in the Bible, the author highlights the context in which God established
covenant relationship with individuals and the nation of Israel, locating the relationship within God’s
initiatives at restoring His preeminent position in creation before the fall of Lucifer and a third of the
angels.

The restoration of God’s Kingship and Kingdom on earth becomes the overarching goal of Covenants
established between God and humankind. While God has been consistent in demonstrating His love and
compassion for humanity through His providence, especially in giving His only Son as substitutionary
sacrifice for human sin, humankind has been unfaithful and has lost every opportunity for redemption
until the advent of Jesus Christ who not only fulfilled every aspect of the Old Covenant that man could
never fulfill, but also established the New Covenant of grace and peace.

The book highlights events and portents in human history showing God’s faithfulness against man’s
unfaithfulness. From the Old Testament period to the New Testament, human beings have turned their
back on God. And the Church of the New Covenant has not done better. “God’s Covenant People…” is a
wake-up call to Christians and the Church to get their acts together and enforce the Kingdom mandate
as commanded by Christ in his Great commission.
