What does the Bible say about being a child of promise?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that believers in Jesus are considered children of promise, as exemplified by Isaac, the son of Abraham.
Galatians 4:28 states that believers, like Isaac, are children of promise. This signifies a spiritual inheritance rooted not in human effort or lineage but in faith in Jesus Christ. Paul elaborates that those who are of faith are children of Abraham, which indicates that the family of God is defined by faith rather than natural descent. As Isaac was born to Sarah through God's promise, so too are believers spiritually reborn through God's grace and promise, making them heirs according to the promise of salvation.
