We're looking at I think our third installment if I if I'm not mistaken on this series on this little

mini series here in Hebrews titled the history of faith and we're going to read these

scriptures together very short but powerful

Hebrew 11 verses 17 to 19 is where we're at and I'll begin in verse 17 if you'll

pick it up and read your one and only verse tonight churches

verse 18 by faith Abraham when he was tested offered up Isaac and he who had

received the promises offered up his only begotten son.

Of whom he was said in Isaac your seed shall be called,

concluding that God was able to raise him up even from the dead from which he

also received him in a figurative sense. Lord, bless our study tonight.

May we honor you and give you all the glory.

And tonight, Lord God, may we leave this building, equipped, and ready to take on any of

those who would attack the deity of Jesus, any of those who would say that

God doesn't love, that God did not provide a Savior.

Lord tonight may we leave with more answers in our belt as it were to pull out and to give to anyone who would ask of us what is the reason for that hope that you have inside of you and

that we would answer them from the word of God we pray it now in Jesus name and

all God's people said amen you may be seated So we're having some fun with this title in this little

mini-series. The history of faith, it almost sounds like what is known as an

oxymoronic statement,

the history of faith.

Can you put those two together?

And the answer to that is absolutely yes.
