Bible Question: Who are Abraham's offspring? |
Bible Answer: Hi pkreichard, You've asked the economy question, because there are actually four answers: 1. There are all of Abraham's physical descendents: Gen 25:9 Then his sons Isaac and Ishmael . . . 2. There are Isaac and his descendants: Heb 11:18 it was he to whom it was said, "IN ISAAC YOUR DESCENDANTS SHALL BE CALLED." 3. There are the children of faith: Gal 3:29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendants, 4: There is Christ Jesus: Gal 3:16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, "And to seeds," as referring to many, but rather to one, "And to your seed," that is, Christ. May we all be found in Him! Love in Christ, Mark |
