Only Two Get Them

"The promises were made to Abraham and his offspring," Galatians 3:16.
What promises? All God's blessings: life, children, family, homeland, heaven. Promises made to whom? Only to (1) Abraham and (2) his singular offspring, Christ. To whom else? Nobody. Wait a minute! What about to us? Nope. Not part of the deal. Well ... there is a way for us (we sort of knew that, didn't we?), but not as admixture of different individuals. Scripture says, rather, we must put on the one and only Christ. Together. All of us being dressed up with the one Christ - we belong to him. Together. Becoming Christ's own, we become that singular offspring, heirs of the promises. We, plural, become one, singular. In Christ alone.
God takes very complex matters and works wonders to extend eternal life to us. We marvel at this God whose power brings us together in Jesus. Give thanks together with a brother or sister today.
