    God tested Abraham - Abram of UR - To sacrifice his Son

    Abram of Ur, was found to be a righteous man. He lived among Chaldeans. Abram is called by Yahava, and told to go from his country (his former life - the old life); and to go to a country, which he would end up getting land, he would leave his people, and his own fathers household. Yahava...

    Abraham

    The man who left his family and home for his God, who was even willing to slaughter his own son. This strong faith impresses me very much, also God liked it, for not without reason he even called Abraham "my friend", as far as I know there are only two people in the Bible who are called "friend"...

    One more thing i love about the Bible is that the word of God will always show you things , and show you more......and more.... The Bible, the word of God, talks to you by revealing to the spiritual "eyes of your understanding", more LIGHT.. You could spend your life sitting in a cave on the...
  7. Behold

    Is it OK to give ?

    - Probably the first tithe was given by : Gen 14:17-20: “at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley), after his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him. Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was the priest of God Most High. And he...
