Be certain, then, that those who are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

Abraham, Father Of The Lights Of This World

Gen 11:26 When Terah had lived 70 years, he fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
(KJV)

Abram, the great father of the faithful.

Who set the pattern for God’s acceptance as pre-ordained. 1)Jas 2:23 This shows the full meaning of the Scriptures that say, “Abraham believed God, and because of this faith he was accepted as one who is right with God.” Abraham was called “God’s friend.” (ERV)
And God made promises to Abraham and his seed. 2)Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. (KJV)
And made all that believe in Him to be the seed of Abraham 3)Gal 3:7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. (KJV)

So it is our belief in our Lord and his Love that connects us to God. 4)Rom 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all. (KJV)
The promise to Abraham was not only his innumerable seed, but also that they are stars, illuminating the world with heavenly light. 5)Gen 15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
Gen 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. (KJV)

Which is exactly our promise in Christ, when he made us lights of this world, just like he is the Light Of The World. 6)Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (KJV)

Father, We Praise You Now And Forever.
For Giving All Authority In Heaven And Earth To Our Lord Jesus.
We Thank You For Pre-Ordaining Us From The Foundation Of This World.
And That Your Only Requirement Is To Believe.
Thank You Lord, In The Name Of Jesus.
Amen.
