The Lord's Gospel - Part 8

In this part we begin our study of the Abrahamic Covenant, the first covenant of which the core elements are designed to apply to all peoples chosen by God to be a party to a covenant with Him. We will start by exploring the first element of the Abrahamic Covenant requiring Abram to separate himself from the common means by which the world offers provisions, safety, wealth, health, and community to those dwelling on the earth. By doing this, Abram may only seek God as his refuge to care for himself and his family. We examine multiple passages leading to the conclusion that before Abram could answer God's call to permanently separate from his country, relatives, and father's house, and sincerely take refuge in God, he would have to be fully persuaded that God was his Heavenly Father, who loved him as a son.
