"What happens to the fathers, happens to the sons." Much of #prophecy consists of retelling history with an added twist, sometimes with the names and locations changed. Consider the repeating elements in the stories of the patriarchs:
-Name change
-Moving away from home
-Flight from famine or persecution
-Exile by force
-Temporary loss of wives and daughters ending in wealth
-Return from exile
We can count on this pattern continuing. What happened to God's people in the 21st century B.C. also happened to them in the 8th century B.C. and the 1st century A.D. and will happen to them again. The details change, but much stays the same, especially God's promises.

If you believe that Peter was telling the truth here, that God resurrected Jesus from the dead, then you need to follow this ministry.
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers and elders of the people, if we are on trial today for a benefit done to a sick man, as to how this man has been made well, let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead—by this name this man stands here before you in good health.
(Act 4:8-10)

Obedience to God’s commands means that we will look and behave differently from the people around us, and this will, sooner or later, cause us pain. If you are faithful to God, you will experience loss.
Despite Abram's losses and hardships, in the end he was blessed beyond measure.

I have 39 (mostly) short videos so far on Paul's letter to the Romans on YouTube 📽️. You can check those out here:

But if you want to go deeper, I have somewhere between 60 and 80 hours (and counting!) of video discussion of Romans for members of Common Sense Bible Study. We still have most of two chapters to go! These recordings are members-only, but basic membership is free. 😁

How did the failure of the Jews to accept their Messiah mean riches for the Gentiles? In the same way that the failure of Israel to repent in Jonah's day meant riches for at least one generation of the people of Ninevah. The ministries of Paul and Jonah are parallel in many ways. Jonah can even be thought of as the first apostle to the nations, a foreshadowing of Paul's ministry.
