Genesis (Program #61) – Circumcision for the Fulfillment of God’s Purpose

Today we have a message entitled “Circumcision for the Fulfillment of God’s Purpose”.  We have seen so much in the past programs through Abraham’s experiences and his dealings with God.  And now today we have a very foundational word on circumcision.  Why did God wait until this point in Abraham’s life to bring in this matter of circumcision?

Genesis (Program #57) – God’s Covenant with Abraham

We are at a transition point today in Abraham’s experience.  Up until this time, God has blessed Abraham very much in the matters related to his existence.  But from this point on, God has more in mind for His called ones than just the physical blessings for their good living.

Genesis (Program #56) – The Seed and the Land (2)

Today we are going to pick up part two of the message entitled “The Seed and the Land” for the fulfillment of God’s purpose.  We saw previously that Abraham was called by God out of his land and out of his kindred,  his family and into a new land that God might fulfill His eternal purpose.  What are the main aspects of this purpose that God begin with His calling of Abraham?

Genesis (Program #55) – The Seed and the Land (1)

Today we are going to come to chapter 15 of Genesis and a life study entitled “The Seed and the Land” for the fulfillment of God’s purpose. Related to God’s purpose, two promises were given concerning the seed and the land.

The promises that the Lord gave Abraham in His calling him, was not just really some things. In the Old Testament He mentioned the seed and the land, but as we see in this message we will see the intrinsic promise was that He will give Abraham and a seed, Himself. We have been called to enjoy Christ as a seed and Christ as the land. Both the seed and the land are just Christ.

It is quite something to see that these are just Christ Himself and not just something from Him or even about Him.
