Completely without obligation, God condescends to treat with his creatures. In doing so he raises them up. He enhances the dignity man already possesses as being created in God's image and being made God's viceregents over the earth and its other inhabitants. Even when man does things deserving of death God provides, through his covenants, a way of salvation. Ever since the fall, this way has always been through the promise of Jesus Christ, a promise present throughout although realized in differing levels of clarity.
