Great! Then Abraham could be granted eternal life after Jesus was qualified by the Father as the source of eternal salvation.
Until then, he rested in Sheol with the hope that the Messiah would come and the Messiah's voice would raise him from the death he was resting in, to grant him eternal life. Hear Him!.
You're not understanding me. I'm saying Abraham had it while he lived, by faith. He had eternal life dwelling in him while he walked on this earth, through faith. Faith can do that, and it does. It hasn't changed since Abel had it even to today when you and I have it. It's the same faith brother.
