What are the blessings of the covenant?

Answered in 1 source

The blessings of the covenant include election, adoption, and justification, all of which are spiritual gifts granted by God to His people.

The blessings of the covenant are manifold and include election, adoption, and justification, as highlighted in Ephesians 1 and other scriptures. Election refers to God's sovereign choice of His people, while adoption signifies their status as children of God, allowing them to call Him 'Abba Father.' Justification, the act of God declaring sinners righteous based on Christ’s atoning work, is also central to the covenant blessings. These spiritual blessings are not only eternal in nature but are also to be experienced in one's life through faith, as the individual comes to grasp their identity and security in Christ as part of the covenant community. They assure believers of their position and inheritance in God's kingdom.
