Know the Bible

Post up this photo from Faulke’s Telescope and use God’s illustration of counting the stars to teach, “Do you trust the Lord’s Promises?”. Abram worried about an heir, but God reassured him with an appraisal of righteousness. By what means does God reassure you today regarding, say, His promise of external Life to those that believe on the Lord Jesus Christ?

Time passed. Abram grew older. No heir was apparent. Doubt loomed. Abram deployed a contingency plan. He married Hagar and fathered Ishmael. What causes doubt in our minds about God keeping His promises? Answer: Not knowing His Word as given to us in the Bible.
