Anyone

"The Law does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God," Galatians 3:17.

What covenant did God ratify before the covenant based on the Law? Again: The one God made with Abraham based on God's promises. Where God would bless all peoples through Abraham's seed, Christ. A covenant further based in the same faith/trust that Abraham had with God. The faith/trust that any human being, Jew or gentile, may have in Christ and join with Christ as heirs in covenant with God. A covenant that anyone, anyone at all, being baptized into Christ has put Christ on. And that anyone, anyone at all, may belong to Christ. That anyone, anyone at all, may become an heir according to God's promise.

And so we meet today with a brother or sister joint heirs in the promises of God. And together we bless the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is become our father, too.
