A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY

The
call of Abram and the promised blessing is recorded in Genesis 12. In Genesis 13:14-18 God further promised to give the land of
Canaan to him and his descendants for an everlasting possession. Then in Genesis 15:6 occurs the statement upon which Paul
based his whole argument of justification by faith apart from works: “Abraham
believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness” (Romans 4:3). Immediately after Abraham was
declared righteous on account of his faith, God entered into a covenant with
him: “In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy
seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the
river Euphrates” (Genesis 15:18).
