“Beyond  the Blessing of Abraham”                                                                        B. Keith Chadwell

 

Gen 28:4 (Old Isaac speaking); “And give thee (Jacob)  the blessing of Abraham,  to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land.

The blessing was passed down the righteous line to the one seed  to receive the fullness of “the blessing of Abraham”; which was;  Jesus.

Therefore as we transition “the blessing of Abraham” we find it’s revelation by the Holy Spirit.   We find Paul tells us in Galatians 3:14, clearly, why the blessing of Abraham was given:

• Gal 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

The “blessing of Abraham” was given, as Paul states in Galatian’s 3:13-14, “that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith”.  “The “promise of the Spirit ” was given because God knew mankind would not and could not do a work in their own hearts to perfect themselves or make themselves righteous by nature.  Therefore, since Adam’s fall  mankind’s bondage to their Adamic sin nature would continue into perpetuity unless God could save them from this fate

So, through FAITH in Christ mankind would be able to receive the incorruptible Royal Seed of His Holy Spirit to be planted within their hearts (the land).  However, the incorruptible Royal SEED would only be the “earnest” of the full promise.              (Continue reading)
