The Word Says; Sanctify them by Your truth; Your word is truth; As You sent Me into the world; I also have sent them into the world; And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth;
And to your Seed; your Descendant, your Heir, obviously referring to one individual, Who is none other than Christ; the Messiah. This is my argument: The Law; which began 430 years after the covenant concerning the coming Messiah; does not and cannot annul the covenant previously established; ratified by God; so as to abolish the promise and make it void;For if the inheritance of the promise depends on observing the Law; as these false teachers would like you to believe, it no longer depends on the promise; however, God gave it to Abraham as a free gift solely by virtue of His promise.
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law; having become a curse for us; for it is written; Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree; that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles; in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith; know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham; And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying; In you all the nations shall be blessed; So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.
