Genesis 22

The Lord Will Provide

March 7, 2024 • Peter Denham • Genesis 22:1–19

God promised Abraham a large progeny, but after giving him a son God tests Abraham's faith by telling him to sacrifice his only son. Of note, this is the first time in the Bible the word "love" is used. Abraham bows to the will of God, even not knowing what will happen on the mountain.
