God's Pledge and Our Devotion | Genesis 17:1-27

On Sunday, 8 September Pastor Craig Baxter continued the series 'Genesis: God's Unveiling Plan of Redemption and Blessing' with 'God's Pledge and Our Devotion' from Genesis 17:1-27.

The Lord confirmed His covenant with Abram by establishing the covenant rite of circumcision as the sign of obedient faith. God also attested to its promises by changing his name to Abraham, meaning “Father of a multitude,” and his wife’s name to Sarah. As a result Abraham obeyed immediately and completely, circumcising himself, his son Ishmael and all the men in his house. In this study we learn that the Almighty God reigns over the universe and over every detail of our lives and His covenant people are to respond in wholehearted devotion to Him, and not cold religious law keeping. 

God’s new revelation (vv. 1-2)
God’s new pledge (vv. 3-8; 15:22)
God’s new command (vv. 9-14; 23-27)
