What does it mean to be sealed in God's covenant?

Answered in 1 source

Being sealed in God's covenant means being marked as His people, set apart for His purposes and promises.

Sealing in the context of God's covenant represents a mark of identification and security for God's chosen people. Just as circumcision was a physical manifestation of the covenant in the Old Testament, the sealing of the Holy Spirit acts as the spiritual seal for New Testament believers, affirming their status as heirs of the promises made to the patriarchs. This divine seal is not merely a sign; it signifies God's commitment to preserve and protect those marked as His, assuring them of salvation and membership in His eternal covenant community.
