Why would God choose circumcision as a covenant sign? In Genesis 17, Pastor Paul explains how God changed Abram’s name to Abraham, promised him nations and kings, and marked the covenant with circumcision—a sign that pointed beyond the physical to the spiritual cutting away of sin. You’ll see how God’s promise narrowed through Isaac, shaping Israel’s future, and why this covenant helps us understand both the gospel and today’s world. Discover how faith, obedience, and God’s everlasting promise still speak into our lives.
