The Messiah was a descendant of Abraham. More than that, we considered last time how He was, in fact, promised within the covenant that God made with Abram (Gen. 12:1-3). According to the Apostle Paul in Gal. 3:16 and 19, He is the ultimate recipient of that covenant! Our Savior Jesus Christ is finally the […]

Last time, we saw how the very first promise of the Messiah proclaimed Him to be the “Seed” of the woman (Gen. 3:15).

The post The Farm Chronicles: One Christmas :: By Bill Wilson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
It was certainly one of the most momentous days in the history of the Earth. It began like every day before – every day they had known since “the beginning” (Gen. 1:1). It began in holiness—in perfection. But, soon enough, they faced something they had not encountered before—something for which they did not even have […]

We ended last time by thinking how the Messiah would be the son of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob—and Judah (see Matt. 1:2-3; Lk. 3:33; Heb. 7:14; Rev. 5:5). Jacob made an astounding and significant prophecy regarding his son Judah—and the greatest descendant who would come through his lineage—giving us one of the earliest glimpses into the […]
