Introduction –As believers, we have the Spirit of God inside of us, a seal of our eternal inheritance and evidence of our restored relationship with God. Today we will see just how remarkable that is. The Ten Commandments were a covenant that brought a curse if you were not fully obedient. God’s covenant with Abraham was an covenant that promised blessing and an eternal inheritance. According to Galatian 3:10-14, how can God bless the descendants of Abraham with an eternal inheritance if they are under the curse of the law which they have all broken? The of the law was taken by Jesus when He was crucified in our place. So, we can receive the of Abraham through faith. The blessing of Abraham is The in us. In Exodus 25, to dwell among them God had to be in a , a holy place, set apart from sin. The sanctuary had the Ark of the Covenant which held the and had a golden mercy seat on top. According to Leviticus 16, why was it called the mercy seat? The law in the ark declared a curse on everyone but the blood sprinkled on the mercy seat for their sins. Their sins were by the blood but not taken away. What do we learn from Hebrews 10 about how our sins were taken away and the result of it? Hebrews 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
