Sat, 10 March 2007 From all the nations on earth, God would choose one nation to be His people. Abraham, a righteous man who trusted God by faith, became the founder of the nation of Israel. God told Abraham to move from his home in Ur of the Chaldeans to the land of Canaan--the Promised Land. God gave Abraham an unconditional covenant that guaranteed God would be the God of Abraham and his descendants, and they would be God's people--the Hebrews. This unconditional Abrahamic Covenant tied God's blessings to the Promised Land. Though childless, Abraham's wife Sarah would bare him a son, Isaac, when Abraham was 100 years old. God was faithful to His promise through this miraculous birth. Comments[0] |
