THESIS 19: EVANGELISM IN THE OLD COVENANT

Abram expanded his household through evangelism and domestic apprenticeship.[63] Evangelism expands the dominion of Patriarchy. Biblical evangelism is Patriarchy (#67, #71). The "Gospel" is the "good news" that Christ is King and is going to turn back the curse and bless all nations. The Scripture preached this good news ("Gospel") to Abraham,[64] saying that God would build and bless all the Families of the earth[65] through his Seed.[66] The Gospel promise to Abraham is being fulfilled in Christ and His Church.[67]
