The purpose' of our study to day is to help adults better un derstand the nature of ' Abra ham's faith and consider "what faith means' to a Christian. . - The Scripture tot this lesson begins - in Chapter v 11. ' There Abraham's ancestors ' are iden tified 'and tas latner reran in troduced. r Terah" "is credited with starting the" journey from Ur to Canaan, , but he stopped and settled permanently at Harart in Mesopotamia. ', Genesis 12:1-7 describes Abra ham's "call", to leave family (except those - nearest to , him) and complete the -journey : to Canaanr the Promised Land. Note that Abraham's faith was not initiated by ' himself. God called him: "Go . . . to' the land that I wiU show , you"- (12;1). God was calling Abraham to be come a pioneer, to dare to trav el in uncharted lands: But' the daring was not merely human. It came' from' a power greater than Abraham. It was God's purpose that captured' him and sent him forth to this unusUal task. ; And Abraham accepted the. call, even though it was largely uncertairi. It was a; call to "the , land that I . will . show you," an undesignated destina tioa The only promise that he had was the greatness' - of the mission, one in which -he would bfe a blessing to' others. 'N6t' knowine where- hi was to' of he still answered the call act-. ceptlng the dangers; of the'juh-' certain journey rathetf-Jmmi'ftfije salety and comfort of fur. f ' Doubtless an e)efnetit f of ' un certainty marks our f 'replies, io God's calls to lis:"'.
