Kings and Priests of the Whole World
The land that God had promised to Abraham pointed to a much greater reality, the claim of the Creator upon the whole creation. The land promise to Abraham and to his descendants, was that he should inherit, not just one small strip of territory between the Jordan and the Mediterranean sea, but the whole world (Rom 4:13; Matt 5:5; Rev 5:10; Psalm 2:8)
‎"...it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring."(Rom 9:8)
"And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise." (Gal 3:29)
"For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory." (2 Cor 1:20)
