Be Amazed!!

More words of wisdom from our friend, Carol Manzo. Enjoy!


WHAT IS THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM?

Christ did this (being nailed to a tree) so that the blessing

of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ;

that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

And if ye be Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed,

and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 3:14 & 29

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO US?

In a nut shell, the promise to Abraham was that God would bless him

everywhere he went. Not only that, but God would bless those who

blessed him and curse those who cursed him. WOW! What a

promise. God blesses those who bless us and those who do not

bless us are under the flip side of the promise. I want to stay on

the blessing end, don't you? And if you belong to Christ, the

verse above verse 28 says as follows.

There is now no distinction neither Jew or Greek,

there is neither slave nor free, there is not male or female;

for you are all one in Christ Jesus. When God looks at us

in Christ Jesus he sees that we have no color, no gender, and no

nationality. There is no distinction in any of us. We are all

kids of the King and heir to live with Him eternally if we so choose.


GOD HAS GIVEN US MANY BLESSINGS.

SEARCH THE WORD AND YOU WILL

BE AMAZED!
