    God makes a covenant with Abraham that he’ll make his descendants a great nation, that he’ll give them a land and that he’ll bless all peoples through him.

    (By Roy Hamer) There was a Catholic priest, an Anglican minister and a Jewish rabbi who all worked together in a little country town. Like a lot of country towns things were a little tough. So to save money they decided that they’d pool some of their resources to save on expenses. They decided to ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,411 views

    Through Abraham’s story with Ishmael, we learn that we cannot be saved by works but only by trusting in God’s works done for us. Then impossible things can happen!

    New York Times, April 16, 2011: So unshakable was this town’s faith in its sea wall and its ability to save residents from any tsunami that some rushed toward it after a 9.0-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of northeast Japan on the afternoon of March 11. After all, the sea wall was one of ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,888 views

    This is the 31st sermon in a series on the Book of Genesis. In this sermon we examine how faith is shown by what you do rather than what you think or say.

    Obedient Faith (Genesis part 31) Text: Genesis 17:15-27 By: Ken McKinley Well we’ve been in Genesis for quite a while now. And this is our 3rd week on Genesis chapter 17. We’ve been looking at Abraham, and we’ve already seen how he had spent 86 years of his life not being a ...read more

  • Changing Our Name

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,955 views

    God changed Abram's name when he made the covenant with him. In the Bible, changing of names often indicates something significant happening in a person's life. When we let God into our life, things are different. God wants to enter into covenant relation

    Changing our Name Do ya’ll remember the show “let’s make a deal”? That was kinda fun, seeing who would wind up with the best deal from what they traded. They all traded hoping to get something better in exchange. How many of us try to make a deal with God in much the same ...read more

  • Part 3 - Genesis 17:1-27 - Could You Choose A Different Sign? Please! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Apr 10, 2010
    based on 25 ratings
     | 5,983 views

    The real SIGN OF THE COVENANT that God made with Abraham is not found in the stars. It was another kind of sign entirely, a sign which probably stunned Abram at first.

    Part 3 - Genesis 17:1-27 - COULD YOU CHOOSE A DIFFERENT SIGN? PLEASE! On facebook I have noticed that you have the opportunity of reading your HOROSCOPE for some kind of guidance each day. Apparently it was Empedocles, a fifth century BCE Greek philosopher, who started it all off when he ...read more

    Abraham's testimony

    Intro: 1. I had the priviledge of hearing my friend Sam Moore preach the other day. I remember having to preach a sermon on Circumsion and having a hard time finding an introduction.

  • When The Miracle And The Mistake Dwell In The Same House

    Contributed by Philip Harrelson on Jan 6, 2012
    based on 7 ratings
     | 14,293 views

    The old preachers used devices called types and the struggle between Ishmael and Isaac is a classic to represent the flesh and the Spirit battling.

    Genesis 17:15-19 KJV And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. [16] And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her. [17] ...read more

     | 5,596 views

    What should I do? 1. When God is silent, we have to learn to wait on the Lord (vs. 1). 2. When God speaks: Bow (vs. 1-3), Believe (vs. 2-8), Become (vs. 5-6 & 15-16). 3. When God asks for a sign, show your dedication to the Lord (vs. 9-14).

  • Will You Wait On God? Series

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on Apr 22, 2012
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,828 views

    Faith is tested when we must wait and continue to trust God even when the answer seems far away, or when our problems seem too great. Abraham's lack of an heir, and God's promise to work a miracle for Abraham provide a powerful example for us of waiting

    Sermon Notes April 22, 2012 FBCam Will You Wait on God? Genesis 17 We often equate FAITH with DECISIONS. Sometimes FAITH is about WAITING. Romans 4:9-12 describes Abraham as the “Father of our Faith.” When we consider Abraham’s faith, we normally consider his faith in ...read more

  • Studies In Genesis: Chapters 17 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 15, 2011
     | 4,614 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 17 1. And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I [am] ...read more

  • What's In A Name? Series

     | 6,959 views

    Fourth in a six-part series on the life of faith as seen in the person of Abraham

    Shortcuts to God’s will are not worth taking. In chapter 16, we read that Abram and Sarai decided that enough was enough; perhaps God meant that Abram would have a son by another woman, since Sarai was barren, and so she gave her maiden Hagar to Abram. Hagar conceived and bore Ishmael to Abram; ...read more
