Bible Question:
EdB, Are you saying that the promise in Exodus 23:25 is for believers today? |
Bible Answer: I'm saying the what the promise foreshadowed is for believers today. The promise was for two things; one land a literal promise given to Israel. The other object of the promise was "rest". This rest was actually a foreshadow of the rest Jesus would give each believer. So in that sense the promise of rest which was a foreshadow of the rest in Christ is for believers today. No where here or in my original response do I say the land known as the country of Israel was promised to the church, if that is what your asking. EdB |
