The covenant of circumcision requires:
Submission to circumcision.
Abraham, his own sons, the members of his household, and servants/foreigners that are brought into the household.
Submission to God.
For the purpose of separating the people of God from the unrighteous.
Submission to sending.
It is an everlasting commissioning.
Submission to community.
All others are “cut off” or cast out.
What is the purpose?
It is a seal of righteousness.
It begins the lineage from Abraham to Christ.
It shows that Abraham is father to both the circumcised and those who walk in faith.
It is no wonder why early believers and modern believers both struggle with how to fold God’s law given to the Jew into modern Christianity.
Have we been taken captive by empty, false philosophies?
How we interact with:
Scripture
Prayer
Evangelism
The point is not that these points are wrong in and of themselves, but that they can be twisted.
How do modern day believers keep the covenant of circumcision?
Keeping the circumcision is a matter of the heart.
Today we must ask, do I have a right heart?
Ask today, “Do I have a right heart?”
