Genesis 17:1–14 | The Sign of the Promise

What does an ancient practice like circumcision have to do with your life today?

In this message from Genesis 17:1–14, Pastor Mace Perez unpacks the covenant sign God gave to Abraham—circumcision—and why it’s actually good news for us. Just like a wedding ring serves as a sign and reminder of a deeper commitment, God gave His people a physical reminder of His promise: “I will be your God.”

📖 We’ll see:

  • Why it’s never too late for God to work in your life
  • How God's promises are as good as done
  • What circumcision symbolized for Israel—and why it's been fulfilled
  • How we now put on the signs of the New Covenant: baptism and the Lord’s Supper
  • How to respond like Abraham: with worship and obedience
  • Whether you’re new to the Bible or have followed Jesus for years, this passage reminds us of the faithfulness of God—and calls us to live in light of His promises.
