Has Yahweh God Fulfilled His Promises to Abraham?


What were Yahweh God's promises to Abraham?

Genesis chapter 12: “1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” Genesis chapter 15: “1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. 2 And Abram said, Lord GOD, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus? 3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir. 4 And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir. 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. 6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.” Genesis chapter 17: “1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. 2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. 3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, 4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. 5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. 6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.” Genesis chapter 22: “15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, 16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: 17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.”

In short, yes He has! There's a previous blog post on the topic of the fulfillment of Yahweh God's promises to Abraham through Yahshua Jesus Christ here perverted-christianity.blogspot.com/2011/10/ A great nation was made, that is the Israelite nation, consisting of the 12 Tribes of Jacob Israel, and after the casting away of the seed of Jacob Israel, many nations came out of the seed of Abraham, wherever the seed of Abraham went they built great cities and nations, keeping the focus on the contemporary fulfillment, the European nations were founded, established by the seed of Jacob Israel, having migrated north through the Caucasus Mountains, that's why white people were known as Caucasians (Yes, Abraham and his seed were white). They also went west through the Mediterranean sea and north establishing the western European countries of Portugal, Spain, France, England etc.

Abraham's seed truly did become many nations and his seed multiplied as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore
