Genesis | Abraham Tested | 7
• Series: Genesis
St. Peter’s Lutheran | Genesis | July 14, 2024 | Pastor Adam Rodriguez | In perhaps the most pivotal moment in Genesis since creation itself, we have Abraham tested by God through the offering of his only son, Isaac, as an offering to the Lord. It is a terrifying moment of confusion. So many questions arise in our hearts and minds as we watch this narrative unfold: How and why would God ask this of Abraham? How could Abraham do this? This command of God seems counter to everything we have come to know of God. But this test of faith for Abraham reveals the foundation of our faith - that God provides the sacrifice.
