How do we know that the promises made to Abraham are still relevant today?

Answered in 1 source

The promises made to Abraham are still applicable today as they find their fulfillment in Christ and assure the Church of spiritual blessings.

The relevance of Abraham's promises is affirmed in the New Testament, particularly by Apostle Paul in Galatians and Hebrews. The continuity of the covenant is established through Christ, who embodies the fulfillment of the promises made to Abraham. As believers, we are considered the spiritual descendants of Abraham, inheriting the blessings of the covenant. This means that the covenantal promise of grace, and the role of faith in receiving God's promises, is not confined to the Old Testament but is a living reality for the Church today, encouraging believers to pursue their faith journey with the hope of eternal rest.
