If we belong to Christ then we are Abraham’s seed


If we belong to Christ then we are Abraham’s seed

Gal 3:29

29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Gal 3:16

16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,”[i] meaning one person, who is Christ.

Luke 3:8

Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)  If we belong to Christ then we are Abraham’s seed and are entitled for his blessings

2)  The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed Christ Jesus

3)  Producing the fruit in keeping with repentance makes us receive blessings that were promised
