Simply teaching the Bible, simply

This teaching is our 17th session in our verse-by-verse study of the Book of Genesis by pastor Barry – given as part of our family service on 18th June 2017.

In this session, we continue to look at the life and walk of Abraham, and consider some of the trials he experienced. As with us, so many of the problems Abraham wrestled with were of his own making, because he acted independently of God’s will for his life. In short, he walked by sight on a number of occasions and not by faith. In chapter 17 God will call Abraham to ‘be perfect’ – that is, not without sin, but perfect in his intentions, in his desire to seek and serve God above all else – including his own natural inclinations!
