    Salvation Plan -Milestones

    In the beginning-Everlasting covenant between God and Man. The Lamb slain is set an emblem

    In eternity- The throne of God and of the Lamb is the culmination of the Abstract set in Seven days.

    on earth- God blesses Abraham,"and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed."(Ge.12:3)

    God confirms it in the plains of Mamre, " and, lo, three men stood by him"(Ge.18:2)

    God 'tempts' Abraham demanding sacrifice. Isaac foreshadows Jesus Christ. "and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son."(Ge.22:1-13)

    Jesus the Lamb of God. "For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified."(He.10:14)

    The Holy city of God- New Jerusalem in heaven. Those names written in heaven. "And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:"(Is.4:3)

    All those who received by faith Jesus Christ as their Savior and put their soul in his keeping has him as the Good Shepherd. The Throne of God and of the lamb (Re.22:1) is the proof.

    Hello again Bennymkje,

    I love the words "Everlasting Covenant". These words from God tell me that He is sovereign and will bring about what has already been determined before creation. How comforting this is to know.

    Hi Gigi,

    Everlasting is implied by the Spirit when God renews covenant,"And I will establish my covenant with you," and the Spirit calls it ' God remembered Noah, "And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."(Ge.9:16)

    By the same token the Spirit refers God tempted as in "that God did tempt Abraham,"(Ge.22:1). God wanted to bring to fore what was foremost hidden in Abraham. Bring to light his faith that remained untested do far. At the end God says, "for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me." (22:12) 'Thine only son' is used as the heir of promise as in the case of his 'only begotten Son' referring to the Word become flesh. David as man after my heart has its own significance. David as a double for his Son, heart as double for soul in Trinity. We have such a wonderful document from God inexhaustible riches of his wisdom and power and it is a comfort to be able chew over it at all times.
