Come and study the Holy Scriptures with us as Father Stephen DeYoung teaches verse by verse on the podcast,

The Whole Council of God. Father Stephen holds a Ph.D. in biblical studies, and it's an Orthodox

priest serving at Archangel Gabriel Orthodox Church in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Then Isaac, Louisiana. Then Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold and the Lord

blessed him.

So this is zooming in on the trust.

So we can see there's this see there's this tension in Isaac.

Because he not only stays when God tells him to stay despite the famine,

but he goes out and plants crops despite the famine.

Because he trusts God,

even though he just made this same mistake as his father,

which has to do with not trust of God.

Right.

So these two things,

these two things can be true of the same person

and kind of are true of most of us, right?

And so, for example, when we see the father of the demon-possessed son,

say to Christ, basically, it's usually translated with believe,

but I would use faithful, right?

I am faithful, help my faithlessness.

Right. A lot of times it's translated, I believe, help my unbelief.

Right. That's not a weird contradiction. That's something we experience.
