Leave a Comment / christ-as-righteousness / By DavidBenjamininChrist

Discover how the Gospel was known to people like Abraham and Abel through the promise of the Seed. Abel’s parents were promised the “seed of the Woman” who would crush the head of the Seed of the serpent, and Abraham was promised the Seed through which he would be multiplied.
