God is not making any promises to anybody again!
The promises had been fulfilled.
We received the promises by faith of Christ.
We are born of the Spirit...
God promises is fulfilled in Christ in us!
Christ is our life.
We are Christed!!!
We only read the scriptures in the revelation of Christ.
The scriptures are shadows, not the original. Christ is the Original,
"The basic thing is"!
God was only speaking by inspiration through prophecy through the prophets of the old, he spoke to the father in signs or in symbols.
Faith was also preached to the patriarch as promise.
They 'the people of the old' believed, even when they had not received the promise! (they believed in Christ (gospel) ahead of time)
So it was counted to them as righteousness without works.
Faith didn't come to us as a promise, it was preached to us as fulfillment of what God preached to the patriarch.
We have received the blessings of the promises and we walk by it.
We are called the blessed of the Lord!
We are also called the children of God, in which Abraham in his time also conceived as promise!
