In Genesis 12 we see that God came to Abraham and called him out to go to a land which He would give him and to his seed. Later, God appeared to Abraham, again and again, promising him a seed, and in Gen. 15:4-5 we see that, The word of Jehovah came to him, saying,…[He] […]
In Christ and By the Organic Union with God we are Sons of God and Sons of Abraham
When you read the story of Abraham, how God called him and promised him a seed which fulfills God’s purpose, you may be “happy for Abraham” but may wonder what does this have to do with you. Abraham was a Hebrew, a Jew, someone called out by God and chosen by Him to be part […]
