      • God created the world, created us to serve Him
      • God calls Abram out of his former sinful life; out of pagan Haran to create new nation

        • God called Abram out of life of sin, just as He does to us
    • Genesis 15:6
      • NT authors pick up on His promise and “counted it to Him as righteousness”
      • we simply trust and have faith in who God says He is
    • Gen 22; reminded of Abraham’s trust in God
    • Heb 11:17-19; we need to have this degree of faith
    • how often does God test your faithfulness?

    • 1 Kings 18:17-21
