Notes
Transcript
Abram was an example of what righteousness looked like.
God said "do" and Abram did those things
Example of his faithfulness
Genesis 22
While up in age,
Abraham and Sarah bore a son, Isaac.
God fulfilled a promise.
God recognized Abraham's fear (reverence) and provided a ram in the bush, so that Abraham would not have to sacrifice his son, his ONLY son.
Galatians 3:6 (God's covenant with Abraham)
Abraham's faithfulness
*Do according to your faith in Jesus Christ
*No man is justified by the law.
*We have rules to live by!
*We become the inheritors of the promise.
We are justified by grace and living by faith.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart...
1 Peter 2:9
You are a chosen generation,
a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people...
As we stand on God's Promises, the Law, and Inheritance we must remember to love everyone the same; the loveable AND the unlovebeable. Even the ones that you don't understand WHY they are in your circle!
