Unfortunately, Mormons don’t understand the meaning of covenant. When you have the opportunity share the importance of this word with the Mormon you know! Performing an ordinance doesn’t secure your place as a member of God’s ‘covenant people’. An ordinance is something you perform once you’re already following Him. Grab a dictionary and show them the meanings of both words!
