Genesis 22 records one of the most incredible stories in world history. It's the Lord's testing of Abraham's faith. After Abraham passes the test, God reassures him of every promise he has made, including the promise to bless "all the nations of the earth" through Abraham's offspring. We must not miss that the test itself is hugely significant in showing how God will bless the world—it's through God providing his own sacrifice on this same mountain. Through testing Abraham's faith, the Lord dramatically shows that he will bless the world through Abraham by providing his own sacrifice in Jerusalem. Each of us should have at least three reactions to this account—horror, wonder, and trust.
