How do we know God's promise to Abraham is fulfilled in Christ?
Answered in 1 source
God's promise to Abraham is fulfilled in Christ, as He is the singular seed through whom all nations are blessed.
The fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham is crucial in understanding God's redemptive plan. Galatians 3:16 explicitly identifies Christ as the singular seed to whom the promises were made, indicating that all blessings intended for Abraham's descendants ultimately come through Him. This means that the blessings God promised, such as being the father of many nations, are realized in the spiritual descendants of Abraham who believe in Christ. Hence, through faith in Jesus Christ, believers become heirs according to the promise given to Abraham, uniting both Jews and Gentiles under His covenant grace.
