Following up on what God revealed to the Apostle Paul concerning Abraham as an example of faith, he now turns to the promise made to him and his progeny. Not only would Abraham be promised many children, even though he and his wife Sarah were well beyond their child-bearing years, he would also become the father of many nations that would occupy a certain trek of land that would later be deemed the Holy Land. Later, the blessing to the world would come through the person of Jesus Christ, who be born through a lineage leading back to Abraham. Those who place their faith in Jesus are guaranteed the very promise of eternal life that was extended to Abraham when he was declared righteous by believing in God.
