Synopsis

This book discusses most of the key events in Abraham's life as they have been recorded in the Bible. Part I will begin by discussing his life in Ur of the Chaldees when he was first told by God to go to the land where he would be led. Analysis of that instruction, along with some other Bible passages, will show that God had probably told him twice to go to a new land. It will also be pointed out that those multiple calls were not because of his disobedience. Following that discussion, when and how he probably got saved will be presented. He was not just automatically saved. He had to actually do something, and that discussion will explain what he had to do.

Part II will focus on some of the mistakes that he had made once he was in Canaan. Analysis in that part of the text will try to reconcile how he could have talked to God in one moment and then lied to protect his skin in the next. The only logical conclusion, as will be defended in that discussion, is that he had probably never heard audible out loud communications from the Lord. Part III of this text will talk about all of the mistakes that he had made in his thinking with respect to the promises that God had made to him. Rather than put him at fault, however, those discussions will seek to show that he was human like everyone else. He made a lot of mistakes between arriving in Canaan and being willing to offer Isaac on Mount Moriah. But by the time that he had reached the end of his journey, he had become a friend of God. So one of the many conclusions of this text is that anyone can believe God and be His friend.

There is one note, however, to be made with respect to the organization of this text before concluding this Introduction. Something that the reader might find useful is boxes throughout that show the different passages that are being referenced at the times and in the places where they are being referenced. That way, he or she will not have to jump all over the place or get into or out of the scriptures to locate a particular reference. Hopefully that inclusion will help the reader in trying to understand the various events and to also quickly put them into their right context. So it is hoped that that addition will make this text easier to read and that the Lord will receive the praise, honor, and glory that He rightfully deserves.
