What Is the Birthright Promise? (Part 2)

This Web-chat session picks up where part one left off with discussing and defining just what the Birthright promise is. The subject is vast, and even part two continues to just scratch the surface of this enormously important point of biblical history.

Your Bible contains four books—the books of the Kings and Chronicles—that primarily chronicle the history of the divided kingdom of Israel. This illustrates how vital the historical record is in understanding the original promise made to Abram in Genesis 12:1–3. Unfortunately, for the most part, the vast traditional Christian community misses a significant reason for this historical record and is therefore blinded to some very enlightening prophetic realities.

This has led to various confusing prophetic outlooks that have been advanced by many so-called Christian denominations misleading tens-of-thousands into completely ignoring the critical role the United States and British Commonwealth have played in helping forge the plan of God.

Unquestionably, most traditional Christians recognize the promise of a Savior; and that Messiah would come from the loins of Abraham, specifically from his great-grandchild Judah (remember, Christ was Jewish). But unfortunately, many miss the part of that same promise, which pertains to becoming a great and wealthy nation with bounty overflowing its boundaries and ultimately controlling the gateways to the lands of their enemies.

This promise of becoming a great nation and company of nations was never fulfilled by ancient Israel, or the Jews. Instead, it was reserved for a later purpose, a much more important purpose that would become critical to promoting the name of the Scepter promise—Jesus Christ!

In this session, Bill and Wayne take you through the migrations of these conquered people and trace their steps westward from their eastern homeland in Palestine. From there, you begin to see just what was behind the providential plan God had in mind—the setting up of a "promotional platform" of wealthy nations that adopted the name of Christ to be their religious foundation.

So take a moment and consider this very challenging record of biblical history. It commences with the separation of Judah (which had the Scepter Promise) from Israel (which had the Birthright Promise). It continues, over many centuries, to display the long-term results embedded in the circumstances of what is known as Israel's "divided kingdom" period.
