Christ redeemed all who trust in Him, and the Holy Spirit applies salvation to them. The Spirit is sent from on high to every true child of God to reside in the 'heart'. Here are the results and evidences of His presence. Do we have them?

Who is the 'seed' of Abraham to whom the promises of salvation were given? Saved people from all lands (many not being descendants of Abraham) are the outcome. Christ primarily is the seed, and the redeemed are His by adoption. Here is the key to so much.
