The name actually means "That God will provide." In the American Standard Version, Gen. 22:14: "And ...read more

Greater and greater grows the power of "Christendom" under the Popes of the darkened ages. Lesser and lesser grows the prospects of the descendants of Abraham. And what is the Islamic connection to Babylon?
TWENTY-FIVE: THE FIRST "REAL" POPES? Some claim that Leo I was the first pope (440-461). "He claimed that he was, by Divine appointment, Primate of all Bishops...that resistance to His authority was a sure way to Hell...advocated the death penalty for heresy..." (Halley, p. 770) Again it is ...read more

Hagar was an Egyptian servant girl in the house of Abraham and Sarah. She was a comparative nobody, but she became a somebody that God used to change history by her motherhood.
Sarah was the oldest mother in the Bible, and likely the oldest woman to ever have a baby. She was 90 years old when she gave birth to Isaac. This is not a record many are striving to match or break, so it is likely to stand for all time. Abraham is the father of Judaism, Islam and Christianity. ...read more

Though Abraham's tent appeared small on the outside, but his heart was a big enough place to host God and become a resting place for God.

God took rest in Abraham’s heart. Abraham’s heart was a big enough place to host God and serve as a resting ...read more

Before Abraham was born, I AM. At first blush it seems a strange thing for Jesus to say. Even Jesus’grammar would appear to be up the wall. But is it?

When called to go, Abraham obeyed and went. As God calls us into his glorious kingdom, he invites us to a life full of challenge, surprise and adventure!
I have to be honest with you… when I was a kid I had a really wrong-headed idea of what the Christian faith was all about.
