Abraham is one of the outstanding individuals of the Old Testament. God spoke to him personally, visited him in his home and even considered him a friend. Abraham loved God, obeyed him, and was even willing to sacrifice his son for him. Abraham is a biblical superhero, deserving a place in the Old Testament Hall of Fame. But are his experiences something you can relate to? See The faith of Abraham, from our series on the books of Moses.  

What does it mean to believe in Jesus Christ? Even the devil believes that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. He doesn’t like it, but he knows it’s true. Moreover, the devil knows that God exists and that he rewards those who seek him. So what is the difference between our belief and the devil’s belief? See Faith, by Joseph Tkach.

The television evangelist had a string of verses lined up, right out of the Bible, that sounded like God was mad at just about everybody, and that the only way out of the horrible mess we’ve gotten ourselves into is to "repent" and "start keeping God’s law." "Oh, you’ve heard that it’s just by faith, but that is not true," he said. "All those preachers are just preaching an empty faith, one without meaning. God will not save you if you are not keeping his law." Is it true? See Another look at faith, by J. Michael Feazell.

We want to overcome. We struggle to overcome. We pray against our sins. We set our wills against our sins. But when all is said and done, we never do quite get rid of them. We are sinners, and as such, we keep on sinning. So why should God keep putting up with us? And why should he let us into his pure and holy kingdom? See A simple matter of trust, by J.M. Feazell.
