Regarding Gen 17:19-22, I see a continuity in the covenants as Paul explained in Galatians 3:17-18 and that I explained earlier to you here!

Susan Says,

God establishes an everlasting covenant with Isaac, Not with Ishmael, how can you explain this if they are both in the same position covenantally?
Susan I NEVER said they were in the SAME POSITION in the SAME COVENANT, but ONLY in the SAME COVENANT. Please look at my post again!

Susan Says,

Do you believe that Ishmael was in the Covenant of Grace?
Yes, to a limited degree as already explained. Look at my post to Gerry.

Susan Says,

God shows grace only to His elect, so how could an unbeliever even be in that Covenant?
This is your faulty presupposition that God only shows grace to His elect. The Bible speaks on God revealing His grace to even the non-elect (not effectually of course, but none-the less His grace), as already demonstrated in several posts, including this one.

Susan Says,

And even more importantly, when you baptize an infant, do you say he or she is "in the New Covenant" and "in Christ"?
Look at the PCA Book of Church Order and you will find the language "similar" to what I now use.
