Those of us at this end of the continuum of the history of God dealing with his people have little sense for the enormity and significance of that unique contact and covenant. The faith of Abraham in responding, even surrendering, to God in that context is overwhelming. What gave him the confidence to believe in the absence of any God history? Now, we have Scripture to trace the relationship of God to His people. We know of His promises and faithfulness, His mercy and love and still many don't have any faith at all. And those of us who do lack the measure and depth that Abraham exhibited. What a pillar! I look forward to your series.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
