What does the Bible say about heirs of promise?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that we, as believers, are heirs of promise through faith in Jesus Christ, fulfilling God's covenant made to Abraham.

In Galatians 4:28, the Apostle Paul explains that we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. This concept is rooted in God's eternal covenant of grace, where God promised Abraham that he would have descendants. It signifies that true children of God are not born of the flesh like Ishmael but are born of the promise through faith. This means our standing before God does not depend on our works but solely on the fulfillment of God's promise through Jesus Christ.
