A unique and vital view of the father of our faith

The chapters of this book are taken from the Life-study of Genesis, a complete study of the book of Genesis that relates the entire book of Genesis to the Christian experience. This study has been a great help to me in my Christian journey.Here is an excerpt from the study that describes well the focus of this book: "In the gospel preaching today people are mostly told that if they believe in the Lord Jesus, they will be saved from hell and will go to heaven one day. This is true, but it is shallow. From God's point of view, to be saved is to be called. God is not concerned about hell but about your country, your kindred, and your father's house. God is concerned about your environment, surroundings, and background....To be saved is not merely a matter of having your sins forgiven, of being rescued from hell, and of being qualified to go to heaven. To be saved means to be called out of your background and environment. "To be saved is also to take a journey, to walk along the way, and to run the race. Pilgrim's Progress, a very famous book written by John Bunyan, stresses the one point that salvation is a journey. To be saved is to be called and to be on a journey. People talk much about justification by faith, using Abraham as an example. But before Abraham was justified, he took a journey. His justification transpired in Genesis 15:6. Before Genesis 15, however, we have at least three chapters telling us that this justified one was on a journey."
