We see a real picture of our full redemption here. Also the quarantee. It all starts with a question. Abraham says How shall I know? Notice that God already revealed that he will give him the full inheritance. The bible shows us that also. see Eph. 1:14 ---- Col.1:12---- Col. 3:24--- Heb. 9:15---
in Col.1:12 the word partakers there means associates. We are joined together with Jesus to be receivers of our inheritance.
What is the answer to so many questions that come God's way to receiving from him his wonderful promises. v.9 The answer is a covenant made through sacrifice. In our case it is Jesus the Lamb. He can pay no more for it is paid in full. Jesus said on the cross it is finished. The word salvation means the total supply of every need. it is used many times in the bible . Not just being born again but any blessing God gave. David says it often in the Psalms. The bottom line is Abraham did receive the promise of the land and so did Israel. We have that seed who is Jesus.
