The Abrahamic Covenant is the most foundational covenant in Scripture—and God alone signed it.


In this episode, Pastor Stephen Martin continues the Why Israel Matters series with a deep dive into the Abrahamic Covenant in Genesis 12–17. Perfect for the commute, the gym, or the drive, this teaching walks you through the covenant ceremony where God put Abraham to sleep and passed through the pieces alone—making the Abrahamic Covenant unilateral, unconditional, and eternal.


You'll Learn:

✅ How the Abrahamic Covenant differs from the conditional Mosaic Covenant—ownership versus experience in the land

✅ Why Genesis 15:6 is "the gospel before the gospel" and what it says about your own salvation

✅ How the three pillars of the Abrahamic Covenant—land, seed, and blessing—shape all of redemptive history

✅ Why the same God who bound Himself to Abraham has bound Himself to every Christian through Christ


📖 Genesis 12–17; Hebrews 6:13–18; Galatians 3:16–17; Romans 5:8; Isaiah 40:8
