Listen "The Sacrifice of Isaac"
Episode Synopsis
Throughout Abrahm's life he had been tried and endured because of his true faith in God. Yet still after all the testing of his faith, "Some time later, God tested Abraham’s faith. “Abraham!” God called. “Yes,” he replied. “Here I am." (Genesis 22:1). God said to Abraham, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” (Genesis 22:2) On the surface, to most this may seem mean of God to require such a thing of Abraham to prove his devotion to God, but this is the very thing God would do, where one day Jesus would die on a cross as an act of devotion of His love for us. Abraham's relationship with God was at such a confident depth that he knew the nature of God is not mean, but loving. And in this relational knowledge he obeyed, believing in God. "Abraham, concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead." (Hebrews 11:19) While most have heard the story of Abraham's faith to sacrifice his son Issac, few have been taught the magnitude of meaning and significance to this story. We truly hope you dive in alongside us, as we discuss the high significance of what there is to learn from this story of true faith, belief and worship.
