Podcasts about with abraham

Walking away from the faith is a phenomenon as old as humanity itself…but a recent “twist” has emerged in how some high-profile Christians choose to abandon their beliefs. Today, Todd attempts to school Carl on the cyber world of TikTok as the dynamic duo discusses one recent and disturbing “deconversion.” The two are talking about Abraham Piper; he’s the son of John Piper, the well-known pastor and founder of the ministry Desiring God. Abraham has attracted a lot of attention as he uses the big platforms of social media and prominent publications to spread his personal story, mock Christianity, and profit from it all. With Abraham being just one of several influencers to publicly “deconvert” here of late, what does it say about them…about us…about the faith in general, and our fascination with “Christian celebrities? Listen and weigh in on this tragic topic.

Isaiah 55 (NIV) Throughout Scripture God provided what the Bible calls “signs.” That can sound spooky or kinda sci-fi, but you can think of it in the same way that we talk about signs. There's a sign at the entrance to our street so you know where you are. There are signs at restaurants and shops so you know what kind of restaurant it is. God's covenants always had signs with them, to help tell the people in the story (and those of us reading it later) where we are in the story and what kind of God is writing it. With Noah it was a rainbow in the sky, a reminder that the LORD would never again flood the earth. With Abraham it was circumcision, a way to mark out God's people from the rest. And the list goes on. Today's passage speaks of another sign and another covenant. God's people have broken there side of the covenant, but after the exile the Suffering Servant has brought Israel back into a kind of covenant renewal moment with the LORD. He says he will make an everlasting covenant and proceeds to describe the sign that will tell them when they have arrived. The sign will be life! Just like the Servant died and then came back to life, the LORD is saying that though his people were desolate, he will restore them. Life where there was death, beauty and nourishment where there was pain and suffering. The sign will be a restored people, flourishing as they were meant to from the beginning. Mercy. Joy. Belonging. Forever. ----------REFLECT---------- 1. What words, phrases or images stood out to you in the passage? 2. When you think about your life, what signs can you point to of the faithfulness of God? What memories, experiences or relationships point to the work of God in your life or in the life of your family? And where do you feel in need of living water? In what ways do you thirst for the LORD? 3. The invitation in this passage is to come. You're invited. Thirst will be quenched, the feast is free. And the celebration is one that will never end. The LORD is inviting you to seek him, to call on him. His mercy and pardon are ready and waiting to be lavished on you. What step do you need to take today to receive His compassion and faithful love? ----------GO DEEPER---------- Bible Project: Isaiah 40-66 >> BP Exploring My Strange Bible Podcast: The Meaning of Hope >> InterVarsity Press Selections: Isaiah >> ----------CONNECT---------- Find an InterVarsity Chapter >> Start an InterVarsity Chapter >> Learn More >> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dailyread/message

(Gn.22:1-2,9-13,15-18;   Ps.116:10,15-19;   Rom.8:31-34;   Mk.9:2-10) “You shall offer him up as a holocaust on a height that I will point out to you.” “Take your son Isaac, your only one, whom you love,” the Lord instructs Abraham, calling him to sacrifice even as an animal his beloved child, upon whom God's promise rests.  To a mountain he is led, with his son carrying wood in tow. And arriving at the place God had told him to go, “Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it… and took the knife to slaughter his son.”  The angel comes to stay his hand, but Abraham is prepared to do as the Lord commands. The Lord prevents Abraham from making this sacrifice because it is not his son who is to die; only the Lord's Beloved could be offered as such a holocaust; only His Son is called upon to die.  “Christ Jesus it is who died,” no one else, for only His death brings life. And on Mount Tabor today we see the life that will come by the Lord's sacrifice; already we glimpse the rays of heaven.  Jesus is as engulfed in flames, holy fire of the most blessed holocaust; and – like the three young men in the furnace, like the bush before Moses on Mt. Horeb – by these flames He is not burned: by these flames His purity is made to shine. How good indeed it is for these apostles to behold this blessed vision!  In it we all find hope that the death of Christ is not for naught, and neither shall our own death be.  For all who die in Christ, die as Christ, a death that brings only eternal life.  And so, comprehending here the majesty to which we are called, all disciples of Jesus, all children of the God of Life, are strengthened for all trial. God “did not spare His own Son but handed Him over for us all,” not because He loved Him not, but because He loves us all.  And now “will He not also give us everything along with Him?”  Will He now seek to condemn those whom He has justified at such a massive cost? “It is God who acquits us,” brothers and sisters, by the death of His Son.  And now “precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of [all] His faithful ones”; do not be afraid to serve the Lord.  For by your sacrifice, to a great height He will draw you, even as He has His Son, who “is at the right hand of God” this day.  With Abraham, He “will bless you abundantly.” Written, read & chanted, and produced by James Kurt. Music: "White" from Listening to the Lamp, ninth album of Songs for Children of Light, by James Kurt. ******* O LORD, if we join your Son in obedience even unto death, we shall be raised with Him. YHWH, your Son has died to raise us all to new life; only His death could bear such fruit.  And should we not therefore put faith in Him, Him whom you have declared your Beloved?  Should we not thus come to a great love of you who have loved us so greatly?  And would we not then come to glory, the same glory He shares with you this day? A sign you give to us this day, dear LORD, a sign of your eternal glory, a glory that comes to us by the death of Jesus the Christ.  And so, we should not be afraid of the death we must die, of the offering we must make of our lives in His Name.  For as we are joined to Him in sacrifice, so will we be joined to Him in your heavenly kingdom. O LORD, bring many souls, souls as countless as the stars, into the land you promise us and which you bring to fulfillment in the death of your Son.  For this grace let us praise your Name forever in your House.

With Abraham's servant, we go from watching Rebekah intently to see whether the journey was a success to on our faces in an explosion of worship unto God for prospering that journey. What had the servant seen- A bride for the covenant son who is believing, kind, diligent, generous, strong, persevering, and trustworthy-

Who is Abraham’s famous son? That would be Isaac. With Abraham and Isaac we see Jesus— the Son of Abraham and our Son of Sacrifice.

The author of Hebrews spends 12 verses on Abraham and Sarah and we will take on about half of them here. With Abraham we look at an act of faith that is often overlooked and with Sarah we have mostly negative verses on her faith (or lack of it) in the Old Testament, but here we have some very positive aspects of her faith. One word in verse 11 really threw me for awhile and I pulled from every resource I could find to solve it's mystery. We will go over that as well.

With Abraham dead, the focus on the covenant promise of God moving on goes from Isaac to the next generation. Listen again to how Isaac's children came into the world and how God was sovereignly at work in them before they were even born.
