How do Gentiles come to enjoy the promises given to Abraham?
Gentiles come to enjoy the promises given to Abraham not by becoming Jewish blood, but by virtue of the spiritual promises to Abraham. They are counted as of the seed of Abraham and now enjoy and experience these grace age promises.
Les teaches that the promise to Abraham is twofold: the stars represent a heavenly seed, while the dust of the earth represents an earthly seed. Gentiles are not made Jewish blood; instead, by virtue of the spiritual promises to Abraham, they are counted as his seed and now enjoy and experience these grace age promises. Paul uses this in Galatians to show that believers, including Gentiles, are of the seed of Abraham.
