Abraham had the opportunity to
meet the legendary Noah and his son Shem. Abraham never got into
idolatry but believed and worshipped the true God of heaven. The
Bible says faith comes by hearing the Word of God, and it is obvious
that Abraham received faith in God from all the things he heard that
were done by God from the time of Adam down to Noah.
The Bible lays out the good and the bad about Abraham and Sarah and
how they lied in an effort to save Abraham's life and how they tried
to conceive a child through their unbelief. But God did not abandon
them and visited Abraham twice to build up his faith.
The ultimate test came when God asked for the sacrifice of Isaac.
All the lies, fear and unbelief in Abraham's life had by this time
been replaced with absolute faith in God and he obeyed the command
and this is why the Bible says "Abraham believed God, and it was
counted unto him for righteousness." Come and join Pastor John for
this exciting story of a man and his wife and their journey with
God. |
