About this episode

Pastor Duane explores the origins of salvation in Christ through a detailed examination of the covenants in Genesis.

Pastor Duane provides a deep dive into Genesis 12, 15, and 22 to explain the origins of the salvation we have in Christ. By detailing the ancient custom of "cutting a covenant," the message illustrates how God the Father and God the Son (the "Seed") walked through the pieces of the sacrifice to seal promises that cannot be broken. The transcript highlights that while the Law was given to show our need for a Savior, the Covenant was established to guarantee God's eternal "covenant love" (Hesed) and unmerited favor toward all who believe.
