Listen "Promise Made, Promise Kept | Dr. Stephen Conley"
Episode Synopsis
Text: Genesis 21:1-34 God's Promise is Fulfilled (Gen. 21:1-7) God proves to be true to His Word as Isaac is born to Abraham and Sarah. Isaac's name (laughter) is proof of God's grace to Abraham and Sarah. God's Promise is Preserved (Gen. 21:8-21) God sets apart Isaac as the one in whom the promise would be fulfilled. God's electing grace and common grace are on display with Isaac and Ishmael. Galatians 4:21-31 portrays this event as an allegory and how it applies to the Gospel and our identity in Christ. God's Promise is Progressing (Gen. 21:22-34) Abimelech's treaty with Abraham proves that God's promise of land to Abraham's offspring continues to advance. As Abraham plants a tree in Beersheba, he is planting his faith in an everlasting God who keeps His promises.
