Sermon Overview

Abraham Obeys The Lord

God covenants with Abraham, but He also calls Abraham to obey. God calls Abraham to bear the sign of circumcision, that he might live by faith in the hope of the Promised One to come. The Promised One comes, bringing with Him a circumcision made without hands, that His faithful might live obediently by the sign of His New Covenant (baptism), while waiting with hope for His return.
