1 | EdB, Is promise here for believers today | Ex 23:25 | EdB | 146769 | ||
Theresa This specific promise was made to only to the children of Israel and can not be applied to us or the church today. Any attempt to so is merely adding new meaning to scripture and none of us want to do that. EdB |

What do you think Paul meant when he said in Galatians 3:29 "And if ye be Christs' then are ye Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise" Do you not think the seed of Abraham was given this promise? |

3 | EdB, Is promise here for believers today | Ex 23:25 | Morant61 | 146777 | ||
Greetings Mitch! Again, context answers the question for us. The promise and the seed mentioned in Galatians both refer to Christ (see Gal. 3:15-18). Paul's point in this whole section is simply that the promise of the 'seed - who is Christ' was made prior to the giving of the Law. Paul is not arguing that all of the promises to Israel apply to us today. This specific promise was made to Abraham and 'his seed', who Paul identifies as Christ. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
