Hebrews 11:8-12
Hebrews 11:8-12
8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
My story?
Abraham obeyed - true faith obeys.
recive an inheritnace - of righteounss like noah??
he went out, not knowing where he was going - could you image? Just start walking.
9 By faith he went to live in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.
land of promise - promise means you don’t have it yet. And he didnt.
Living in tents - means you haven’t made it your home yet.
10 For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose designer and builder is God.
He realized thre true city was in heaven. Not here.
11 By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised.
considered him faithful who had promise -
But she first did’t. She first lauged.
12 Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendants as many as the stars of heaven and as many as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.
him as good as dead - haha
one man - all it takes it for one man to live in obedience.
Hebrews 11:13-16 - Point 2

14 For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.
