Continuity?
Paul,
You'd make a good teacher, you make me think. I agree with the continuity you're pointing out, and I know there's a connection between that and the land promise question being discussed, but the carrot stick seems just out of my reach.
Continuing to think about it so I can grab that elusive carrot stick,

A reoccurring thought:

Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
