The message continues through promises to Abraham for blessing to all nations, to Moses for a prophet like Moses, and to King David for an eternal ruler among David’s descendants. Jeremiah’s New Covenant emphasizes God’s law written on hearts and personal knowledge of God, with forgiveness of sins initiated by the Messiah.","21. God Promises the Messiah  \nA Bible story from: Genesis 3:15; 12:1-3; Deuteronomy 18:15; 2 Samuel 7; Jeremiah 31; Isaiah 59:16; Daniel 7; Malachi 4:5; Isaiah 7:14; Micah 5:2; Isaiah 9:1-7; 35:3-5; 61; 53; Psalm  \n22:18; 35:19; 69:4; 41:9; Zechariah 11:12-13; Isaiah 50:6; Psalm 16:10-11  \nEnglish Spiritual  \n21.

The first promise of the Messiah came to Adam and Eve. God promised that a descendant of Eve would be born who would crush the snake’s head. The snake who deceived Eve was Satan. The promise meant that the Messiah would defeat Satan completely.  \nGod promised Abraham that through him all people groups of the world would receive a blessing. This blessing would be fulfilled when the Messiah would come sometime in the future. He would make it possible for people from every people group in the world to be saved.  \nGod promised Moses that in the future he would raise up another prophet like Moses. This was another promise about the Messiah who would come at some later time.  \nGod promised King David that one of his own descendants would rule as king over God’s people forever. That meant that the Messiah would be one of David’s own descendants.  \nThrough the prophet Jeremiah, God promised that he would make a New Covenant, but not like the covenant God made with Israel at Sinai. In the New Covenant, God would write his law on the people’s hearts, the people would know God personally, they would be his people, and God would forgive their sins. The Messiah would start the New Covenant.  \nGod’s prophets also said that the Messiah would be a prophet, a priest, and a king. A prophet is a person who hears the words of God and then proclaims God’s words to the people. The Messiah that God promised to send would be the perfect prophet.","cbCaisN21aVYILlG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisN21aVYILlG","pdf",366841,2,1,21,"English","en",105,"# God’s Promise to Adam and Eve\n# Promises to Abraham, Moses, and David\n# Jeremiah’s New Covenant\n# The Messiah as Prophet, Priest, and King","[{\"question\":\"What was the first promise about the Messiah given to Adam and Eve?\",\"answer\":\"God promised that a descendant of Eve would be born and would crush the snake’s head, meaning the Messiah would defeat Satan completely.\"},{\"question\":\"How did God’s promise to Abraham relate to the Messiah?\",\"answer\":\"God promised Abraham that all people groups in the world would receive a blessing, which would be fulfilled when the Messiah came and made salvation possible for every people group.\"},{\"question\":\"What is central about the New Covenant described through Jeremiah?\",\"answer\":\"In the New Covenant, God would write His law on people’s hearts, people would know God personally, they would be His people, and God would forgive their sins, started by the Messiah.\"}]",1784131162,53,{"code":4,"msg":31,"data":32},"ok",{"site_id":25,"language":24,"slug":33,"title":13,"keywords":34,"description":14,"schema_data":35,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":28},"god-promises-the-messiah","",{"@graph":36,"@context":85},[37,53,68],{"@type":38,"itemListElement":39},"BreadcrumbList",[40,44,47,50],{"item":41,"name":42,"@type":43,"position":21},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":45,"name":46,"@type":43,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":43,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/religion-spirituality/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":43,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/god-promises-the-messiah/80832/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":24,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":41,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-20","2026-07-15",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"What was the first promise about the Messiah given to Adam and Eve?","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"God promised that a descendant of Eve would be born and would crush the snake’s head, meaning the Messiah would defeat Satan completely.","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"How did God’s promise to Abraham relate to the Messiah?",{"text":80,"@type":76},"God promised Abraham that all people groups in the world would receive a blessing, which would be fulfilled when the Messiah came and made salvation possible for every people group.",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"What is central about the New Covenant described through Jeremiah?",{"text":84,"@type":76},"In the New Covenant, God would write His law on people’s hearts, people would know God personally, they would be His people, and God would forgive their sins, started by the Messiah.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":25},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,101,105,110,115,120,125,128,131,135],{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":98,"show_sort_weight":99,"slug":100},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":102,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":104},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":106,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":107,"show_sort_weight":108,"slug":109},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":111,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":113,"slug":114},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":116,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":117,"show_sort_weight":118,"slug":119},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":121,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":122,"show_sort_weight":123,"slug":124},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
