One part of God's covenant with Abraham was the promise to give his offspring the promised land of Canaan. For centuries God's people held on to this promise of a future home in which to live in peace and righteousness with their Creator God. Jesus fulfills this covenant promise by dying and rising from the dead to conquer the world for himself and for his people – a world which he will someday make completely new.
Readings and sermon were delivered by Pastor Aaron Mueller.
