Hello
I gave this verse: Galatians 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
and you responded : Well yes, sorry to break it to you, The Gospel preached to Abraham IS THE SAME GOSPEL WE HAVE BELIEVED! It wasn't the act of preaching how the nations were to be blessed. It was by Abraham's example of BELIEVING BY FAITH on God's Salvation Promise which is HOW we are blessed in Abraham. Let me say that another way...
So scripture says the gospel was preached unto Abraham SAYING "In thee shall all nations be blessed"
but, you say this is not the gospel by saying "It wasn't the act of preaching how the nations were to be blessed."
I need not say more.
Why are you being obstinate about the Gospel that was preached to Abraham? Jesus said Abraham saw His day, and was glad (John 8). You pull out one verse from Galatians 3 and try to support your false dual-gospel theory, and completely look over what Paul was teaching there in Galatians 3...
Gal 3:7
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
KJV
Gal 3:9
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
KJV
Gal 3:13-14
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
KJV
Gal 3:27-29
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
KJV
