The Covenant… | In the Footsteps of Abraham with Johannes Gerloff #32

God makes a covenant with Abraham. It is not so much Abraham’s piety, Abraham’s desire to be close to God, Abraham’s goodness that is the basis of his relationship with the Creator. Rather, God Himself takes the initiative. He promises to uphold this covenant, not only with Abraham, but even with his descendants. Therefore it is an everlasting, an eternally valid agreement – guaranteed by God’s faithfulness.
