“The promises were made to Abraham . . . God bestowed it on Abraham through a promise” (Galatians 3:17,18 NAB). But how are the promises made to Abraham fulfilled?
“Those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham who had faith”—Galatians 3:9 NAB
“If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendant, heirs according to the promise”—Galatians 3:29 NAB
All genuine Christians, therefore inherit the blessings promised to Abraham.
“He was to be the father of all the uncircumcised who believe . . . as well as the father of the circumcised who . . . also follow the path of faith the our father Abraham walked”—-Romans 4:11,12 NAB
