Hebrews 11:8-10 - Abram Did Not Ignore the True and Living God
May 7, 2023. S-1539-DC
We continue our study in Hebrews 11, God’s “Hall of Fame,” this week looking in detail at the life of Abram (Abraham) before he obeyed God’s command to leave pagan Ur and travel to a land “that I will show you.” Pastor Dustin shared Josephus’ account of Abram’s life in ancient Ur and how he became to believe in and proclaim the one true and living God as revealed in creation. Like the pagan Chaldeans of antiquity, our “modern” world is increasingly “suppress(ing) the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse” (Romans 1:18-20), which always leads to sexual perversion and worship of the creation instead of the Creator (Romans 1:24-25), and the eventual collapse of that civilization.
