We meet Sunday mornings at New Traditions Elementary School! You can find more information about our Sunday gatherings on this page.

Summary

Throughout history, people have fought to amend and change the terms of covenants they've made. There is something deeply wrong about making a promise and then breaking it or ignoring it. If this is true in covenants between people, how much more is it true in covenants with God? Hear Dave preach about Paul's words to the Galatians regarding this.

Galatians 3:15-18

15 To give a human example, brothers:1 even with a man-made covenant, no one annuls it or adds to it once it has been ratified. 16 Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, “And to your offspring,” who is Christ. 17 This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void. 18 For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.
