THE TESTING OF ABRAHAM; A THEOLOGY OF SUFFERING
GENESIS 22:1-14

As we continue our study in Genesis 22, we will set once again the context of events in Abraham's life at the chapter's beginning. Picking up a few thoughts concerning the reality that God tested Abraham (and He tests all who believe in Him) and that He gave Abraham a command to be obeyed, we will proceed to the outcome of that test and command. The outcome was that Abraham experienced trial and suffering. At this point we will move to more of a topical approach and the trials and sufferings that Christians experience. Why do Christians suffer? What types of suffering do we encounter in life? What is the most intense type of suffering we may encounter, here, in life's journey? Looking at examples from Scripture, we will explore some solutions to these questions. However, this being our first installment on the topic of suffering, we will draw to conclusion in more depth answers in our next study on Genesis 22.

May the Lord enrich your life in Christ through the power of His sustaining and strengthening grace.
