THE OFFERING OF ISAAC
Genesis 22:1-2
Now it came about after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Take now your son,
your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you.”
Commentary: We live in a post-biblical time where burnt offerings are no longer required, and God does not ask of us to sacrifice human life. Yet, there is a relevant message for us who live in modern times.Think about Abraham's incredibly strong statement of faith: "Here I am."
How can you be there for God when called?
