2 Corinthians 1:22First Nations VersionHe put his Spirit into our hearts to mark us as his own. His Spirit in us is the promise of our place in the world to come. See the chapter |
He was given the cutting of the flesh ceremony to mark him as Creator’s own, as a sign that he had already put his trust in the Great Spirit and that he was in good standing even before he performed the ceremony. This means Father of Many Nations (Abraham), just as his name says, is the ancestor of all the Outside Nations who believe and trust in the Great Spirit. Even though they have never performed the ceremony, they are now in good standing with Creator.
