In this message, Dr. Doug dives deep into Genesis 3:15 and the promise of salvation that has echoed throughout history. From Adam and Eve to Noah, Abraham, Moses, and the prophets, we see how God's covenant and redemption plan through the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ, has always been at the center of His plan.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

✔️ The seed of the woman and the defeat of Satan

✔️ How the sacrificial system pointed to Jesus

✔️ The faith of Old Testament believers in the coming Messiah

✔️ The difference between atonement (covering of sin) and salvation (removal of sin)

✔️ Our call to live by faith as we await Christ's return

💡 What This Means for Us: Just as the Old Testament saints had faith in a coming Savior, we now have faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ and the future fulfillment of His kingdom. The greatest story ever told is still unfolding, and we are called to live with bold faith in His promises!
