When Did Abraham Inherit the Promise?

But every man in his own order:
Christ the firstfruit; One man, singular, took place three days after he commended his spirit into the hands of his Father.
afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. Rev 20 calls these, at his coming, as being the first resurrection. That is when Paul and Abraham will be resurrected. IMHO

Those, are Christ's, of 1 C 15:24 are those who were indwelt with the Holy Spirit for the purpose of Rom 8:11, 23

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Titus 3:7 Heirs not yet inheritors. Again IMHO.

 

Not a parable. It is a true account in that Abraham, Moses and the prophets are being mentioned.

 

Abraham!

 

Not seed of Christ, but of Abraham!

 

Abraham saw the promise of Canaan as a symbol of something far greater. Heave and possibly the new heavens and earth. If you think of it, Cannan could not contain the immensity of the promises. The carnal Jews of course saw the symbol as the reality rather than what it represents. And so it is today, blind to the spiritual truth, people still expect a "premillennial" kingdom, thereby rejecting the gospel of the kingdom.

 

What did Jesus teach to His disciples as to whom taught in parables and why?Luke 8:9-10. Note the context Luke gave, Luke 14:7-24.

 

Ephesians 2:6 and Colossians 2:12 are no less true, and are reconciled by rejecting the Premillennial explanations of Revelation.

In earth, we are born again--of God. We aren't merely restored to the original state of innocence that Adam knew. We, unlike him, are begotten of God; partakers of the divine nature, which is an eternal nature. We are raised with Him. We cannot sin ( 1 John 3:9 ) . None of these things are seen, but they are eternal truths none the less. What you are saying about our day-to-day, moment-by-moment, temporal experiences are true, too. There will be a resurrection of the body. But, the work of Redemption is finished. Abraham is not being held in a half-way house somewhere in an unglorified state, waiting for things to happen. He has received the Promises in full.

 

Again, who did Jesus tell His disciples as to whom He would tell parables to?

 

15:23 ἕκαστος δὲ ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ τάγματι· ἀπαρχὴ Χριστός ἔπειτα οἱ Χριστοῦ ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ αὐτοῦ

Well, that being said, we do not agree in our understanding on Jesus' reason for teaching in parables. And does not require a true story to be a parable.

 

Hark Translators may have put a, s, on the end but the word is singular.

Check any literal translation.

NLT has the correct concept. But there is an order to this resurrection: Christ was raised as the first of the harvest; then all who belong to Christ will be raised when he comes back.

 

When did Abraham inherit the promise? OP

YLT Romans 4:13 For not through law. the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, of his being heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith; --------- Was it possible for the flesh and blood Abraham to inherit the world or would for him to inherit the world require him to be raised out of the dead? Was it possible for Abraham to inherit the world before his seed (singular) inherited the promise. Is Jesus, the one brought forth by the virgin Mary, the one God (the Father) appointed heir of all things. the seed (singular) of Abraham? ----- Was Abraham sinless? Was the seed of Abraham sinless? Was the seed of Abraham obedient unto death even the death of the cross? Is that, obedience unto death, what brought our redemption and was it because of, our redemption, the seed of Abraham was raised out of the dead.

2 Tim 2:8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,

Has the seed of David, the seed of Abraham inherited the world? ----- When?

John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Is that in bold a post resurrection statement? Consider: John 17:5 'And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee; John 7:39 and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
Romans 1:3,4 concerning His Son, (who is come of the seed of David according to the flesh, who is marked out Son of God in power, according to the Spirit of sanctification, by the rising again from the dead,) Jesus Christ our Lord;

When will father Abraham inherit the world? Will it be at next coming of his seed?

Luke 20:34-38 YLT And Jesus answering said to them, 'The sons of this age do marry and are given in marriage, but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage; for neither are they able to die any more -- for they are like messengers -- and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again. 'And that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the Bush, since he doth call the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.'

Abraham will inherit the promise and be inheritor of the world, in the next age, at the coming of Jesus and the resurrection of those that are Christ's.
