Do you still believe in the promise, that G.d would give Abraham the land of Israel as an everlasting (necessitating his resurrection) possession? "And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes and look from the place where thou art (Bethel) northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever..........Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee." Genesis 13:14-17
"In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, (past tense shows the certainty) from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates." Genesis 15:18
Who is Abraham`s natural seed spoken of in these verses? "And G.d said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad (Ishmael) and because of thy bondwoaman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called." Genesis 21:12
