Abram’s seed
Text: Genesis 13:14-19
Abram’s seed is Christ according to Galatians 3:16 (3:16-29 is a full explanation).
- Covenant confirmed in Christ – Galatians 3:17 – the promises are in Christ.
- John 8:56-58
- The law given to the nation of Israel was 430 years after the promise, so the inheritance was not based on the law. The law was to address the transgressions of the nation UNTIL the seed should come to whom the promise was made. In other words, the law addressed the transgressions of Israel until Christ could come.
Seed separated by faith
- Lot walks by sight, Abram by faith. Walk by faith, not by sight.
- Galatians 3:6-7, 9, 22
- John 8:39-45
Inheritance is the promised land
- Physical land on the earth.
- It is forever.
- Luke 13:38-39
Seed will be multiplied
- Seed is multiplied, but not into seeds. The seed, singular, will be multiplied.
