| Galatians 3:8 8 And [know] the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, [God] preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you will all nations be blessed." [In the time of Abraham, not a single scripture existed. Christ did the preaching of the gospel then; he preaches now; and Christ will continue to preach the gospel from within a man's heart. See Col 1:23 footnote for more.] | Genesis 22:18 18 And in your offspring all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."1 | ||||||||
