How do we know that God's covenant is everlasting?
Answered in 1 source
God's covenant is everlasting because it is rooted in His eternal will and fulfilled in Christ, who lives forever and secures our salvation.
The everlasting nature of God's covenant is underscored in Scripture, particularly as seen in Genesis 17:19 and reinforced through the New Testament. God declares that His covenant will stand for all generations, which is fulfilled in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As our mediator, Christ's everlasting presence guarantees that the promises of this covenant are secure and unchanging. Furthermore, Jeremiah 32:40 emphasizes that God will maintain His covenant, ensuring that His people, once called, will never be forsaken. This assurance provides profound comfort to believers, underscoring that our relationship with God through Christ is eternal and unbreakable.
