Covenant Administration Update

As we are preparing to publish the Teachings and Commandments, an explanatory header was written for The Covenant, detailing how it is to be administered. Yesterday morning the explanation was expanded and we thought it important to share the expanded explanation as soon as possible:



SECTION 160

This is the covenant ordinance offered by the Lord to all who will receive it. Received by Denver Snuffer, Jr., July 2017, and presented for the first time in Boise, Idaho, 3 September 2017, at a Covenant of Christ conference. 

NOTE: This covenant can be received at any time, in any place, by any person who has accepted the Doctrine of Christ. Either an authorized priesthood holder who has previously received The Covenant can administer it, or the recording of the Boise Covenant of Christ Conference can be used. The believer receiving The Covenant should have the words of the Prayer for Covenant and Answer to Prayer for Covenant read to them, following which they have read to them The Covenant, and then comply with the directions therein, answering "Yes" out loud at the appropriate moment.
