Credited to Him as Righteousness

Credited to Him as Righteousness
Pastor Keeyoung Kim

 I. “Call narratives” in scripture

 II. God initiates the conversation with Abram (Genesis 12)
Who is Abram?
What’s his situation when God calls him?

 III. Abram’s crises of faith (Genesis 12:10-20, Genesis 15)

 IV. God makes covenants with Abram (Genesis 15, 17)
“Cut” a covenant
Covenant of circumcision

 V. God gives Abram a new identity and purpose (Genesis 17)

 VI. Abram tested (Genesis 22)

 VII. Application
Relating the call of Abraham to our lives, what do you think it means to be “called by God”?  Share your personal “call” narratives. 
Have you ever had a crisis of belief/faith or are you going through one currently?  Share the situation and take a moment for the Lord to “help our unbelief” and to give one another faith.
How do the covenants God made with Abraham relate to Jesus and ultimately to us today?
How do you think God views you, as a sinner or as the righteous?  Why?
How do you think (How has) your answer to question 5 can impact (impacted) the way you perceive and live life?
Scripture says that we are a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17).  Thank the Lord for this truth and for Jesus that makes this possible.
