What does it mean to be a covenant people, a cherished treasure of the Lord? And what are the responsibilities associated with that blessing? Study with us the history of Israel from Old Testament times to the present, and rejoice with us in the promises made to the Fathers. 
Exodus 19:5
"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 the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure."

 

 

 

 

 

Psalm 135:4

 

 

"Throughout the ages, the Lord has referred to his people, those who love him and keep his commandments, in words that set them apart. He has called them a 'peculiar treasure' (Ex. 19:5), a 'special people' (Deut. 7:6), 'a royal priesthood, an holy nation' (1 Pet. 2:9). Scriptures refer to such people as Saints. As the Savior taught, 'by their fruits ye shall know them.' (Matt. 7:20.)"
