What happens when we rush ahead of God’s plan and try to find success through our own strength? Our teacher, theologian Dr. John Whitcomb, will show us the consequences of making a hasty, foolish choice today as he continues his series on “Genesis—History of Beginnings” here on “Encounter God’s Truth.” We are studying the life of Abraham, and today we cover some pivotal events in his experience. Dr. Whitcomb then turns to a question from Wayne Shepherd, our host, who asks why Abram laughed at God’s promise of a son—in spite of the fact that the New Testament shows him to be an example of faith—and what we can we learn from that episode. You will be encouraged by Dr. Whitcomb’s practical words of wisdom. God’s Word is true from the beginning to the end! Thanks for listening to our teaching of it.
