Best Answer

There are two answers. The first: through circumcision, which is called the covenant of God (Genesis ch.17).

The second: Abraham, as instructed by God, walked between the parts. He took the animals which he was told to, and walked between their parts (see Genesis ch.15 for details).

How was Abraham's covenant sealed?

The New Covenant is sealed by the Holy Spirit. In Ephesians 1:13-14, Paul says, "And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession-to the praise of his glory."This tells us that we are in Christ (i.e. saved) from when we hear the word of truth and believe it. It further tells us that the seal marking us in Christ is the Holy Spirit within us. The Holy Spirit described as the deposit, or down payment, that God makes ensuring us that we are going to be with him. Because we have the Holy Spirit within us, giving us a direct connection to God, we can know that we have salvation and that his covenant is secure.AnswerThe New Covenant was sealed with the blood of Christ "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood." (Luke Ch.22)

Did the Puritans baptized infants?

Yes, in general Puritan groups did baptize infants under the assumption that early baptism was a "half-way covenant" with God that included the child in the Faith community much the same way Circumcision was a mark of community membership in the Old Testament. Baptism of an infant was not considered a final seal of salvation however, as each individual was expected to have a later "conversion experience" that would bring them into a personal covenant with Christ in addition to the community covenant that took place at Baptism.
