18. Abraham & Covenant Promises || Cracking the Genesis Code

In this sermon, Pastor Bohr studies a story which is a prime showpiece of Genesis' pattern of recording historical events that also have prophetic significance.

The story of Abraham's willingness to offer Isaac as a sacrifice clearly has many parallels to God the Father offering His submissive and willing Son Jesus to die in our place and to His subsequent resurrection. Even the very place where the temple was to be built and where Jesus would die, as well as the amount of time He would suffer and what material He would be sacrificed on, was foreshadowed by this event.

Jesus was the One Who made the promises to Abraham about his Seed that would restore to mankind the worldwide dominion, conquering of enemies, abundant blessings, and holy descendants that Adam had forfeited. He alone fulfilled His own promise, through His perfect life and death, and gives these blessings to all spiritual Israelites who accept Him.

Pastor Bohr underlines the important Bible truth that all these promises were made, not to Abraham's human descendants, to be fulfilled by and in the nation of Israel, as many prophecy teachers erroneously teach today, but only to Abraham's unique and "only begotten" Seed, Christ, Who alone perfectly fulfilled them. No promise that He has made can ever be irrevocably given or fulfilled to Israel or to anyone else as long as they do not accept Him as the only perfect Seed of Abraham. We must all be adopted by baptism into Him as His brothers and sisters in order for the blessings to shared with us. This encouraging sermon will show that when we are tested with trials and sorrow and seem to have no way out, "the Lord will provide" for us what He has said He would.
