Scripture Post #1,032: *ABRAHAM TRIED BY GOD*

Hebrews 11:

17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 

18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

Abraham thought Isaac to be his one and only offspring that would produce innumerable sons and daughters. Isaac's offspring was likened to the sand and the stars. What's powerful is that Abraham had so much faith in GOD that he figured after he killed his son Isaac, that GOD would raise him from the dead. Wow!! Abraham was tried by GOD and passed his test! Will you pass yours?
