You are forgetting that there were two covenants made with Abraham. The one referred to in Galatians 3 is the covenant of Genesis 17. The land covenant is in Genesis 15.
Futurism most absolutely does not cut out, leave out, or ignore even one passage of scripture anywhere. The only ones who do that are the ones who cut out all the Old Testament prophecies under the false pretension that they were set aside because Israel failed.
But God repeatedly and very clearly said that absolutely nothing could ever interfere with the fulfillment of these promises. They were unconditional and absolute.
That's just wrong Biblewriter! There is ONLY ONE Abrahamic covenant, and it involves the promise of Isaac as well as the land! It is the same covenant! These two promises to Abraham, from God are in Genesis 15:
Isaac is promised in 15:4-6:
4 Then behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, This man will not be your heir; but one who will come forth from your own body, he shall be your heir.
5 And He took him outside and said, Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them. And He said to him, So shall your descendants be.
6 Then he believed in the Lord; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness.
The land is promised in verses 7 and 8:
7 And He said to him, I am the Lord who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to possess it.
8 He said, O Lord God, how may I know that I will possess it?
God tells Abraham what to do in order to seal the covenant in verses 9-11:
9 So He said to him, Bring Me a three year old heifer, and a three year old female goat, and a three year old ram, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
10 Then he brought all these to Him and cut them in two, and laid each half opposite the other; but he did not cut the birds.
11 The birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
God Himself seals the covenant passing between the sacrifices with a "flaming torch" in verses 17 and 18:
17 It came about when the sun had set, that it was very dark, and behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a flaming torch which passed between these pieces.
18On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying,
To your descendants I have given this land,
From the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates:
There was only ONE covenant, and it involved Isaac and the land! You make a wrong assertion.
