Abraham was promised a Spirit by God. He was not promised a physical person, by God.
Abraham was promised a Spirit by God. He was not promised a physical person, by God.
Galatians: 3 King James Version (KJV)
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.
Faith is 'belief in things not seen'. The physical Jesus is 'seen'. The Spirit Jesus is 'not seen'.
Abraham was promised a Spirit by God. He was not promised a physical person, by God. The entire advent of Jesus related solely to this promise of a Spirit which God made to Abraham.
The physical 'seen' and temporal, son of man, Jesus was and is, not the Lord in heaven:
1 Corinthians: 15 King James Version (KJV)
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven
The physical Jesus was simply a sign for the Spirit, 'not seen' and eternal, Son of God, Jesus, Who is the Lord in heaven. This sign was need by the Jews who were all spiritually dead, at that time and therefore could not in the least way detect, know about and/or come onto the Spirit Jesus.
Jesus was forced to come among the Jews in a physical body to simply tell them about His Spirit, Who is the Lord.
The physical 'seen' and temporal Jesus (who was and is, not the Lord in heaven) came and left and returned as the Spirit, 'not seen' and eternal, Son of God, Jesus, Who is the Lord in heaven. This is the Spirit of Truth/Spirit of Intercession. This Spirit of Jesus is given to intercede on behalf of Saints/Christians with the Holy Spirit. This Spirit of Jesus, must be detected and known through one's own heart/spirit.
This all occurred (was put in place) 2000 odd years ago. Since then the Spirit, 'not seen' and eternal, Son of God, Jesus is the Lord in heaven. It is all a done deal
Those who continue to wait for a physical Jesus are all misled and deceived by false prophets.
2 Corinthians: 3 KJV N.T.
17 Now (i.e. since 2000 odd years ago) the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
Romans: 8 kjv n.t.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Romans: 3 KJV N.T.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Acts: 13 King James Version (KJV)
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
The 'liberty' and 'justification' which one has where the Spirit of Jesus is accepted and rules, is God given liberty and justification to transgress the ten commandments and not get sin but instead be glorified by God.
Christianity is totally about the Spirit Jesus (and the N.T.) and not at all about the physical Jesus (and the O.T.).
