How do you ?

Gen 22:2 “And He said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.”
Now, let me walk on thin ice again.
If you read in this chapter, God spoke to Abraham and asked him to sacrifice his only son Isaac. Now Abraham’s faith was tested beyond measure and beyond theoretical understanding. Why ?
Because God commandment was never to murder. Its against the grain of theoretical understanding for a sacrifice of innocent blood.
Let me reiterate. The God we serve is the same God which Abraham served – And God does not change.
Many Christians struggle in their daily walk because they receive an authentic word from the Lord, but they refuse to obey arguing and telling God about their theological beliefs. When God calls, its our job to obey.
Obedience is better than sacrifice.
