FAITH: NO DOUBT OR KNOW DOUBT? (The Gospel According to Abraham- Part 3)
Genesis 15:1-21
DOUBT LEADS ABRAHAM TO…
… throw SARAH under the bus- Gen 12:12,13
… be filled with WORRY AND FEAR Gen 15:1
… HAVE SEX with Hagar- Gen 16:2-4
… throw Sarah under the bus AGAIN Gen 20:2
THE DOWNSIDES OF DOUBT
1. Doubt can cause one to REJECT GOD Heb 11:6; Ps 14:1
2. Doubt can lead one TO DISOBEY Gen 3:1-1; 1 Sa 15:1-24
THE UPSIDE TO DOUBT:
It can lead to increased CONFIDENCE IN GOD
CASE STUDY: ABRAHAM’S DOUBTS- Gen 15:1-21
Abraham has….
…doubts about GOD Gen 15:2,3
…doubts about HIMSELF Gen 15:8
God answers Abraham’s doubts by “CUTTING A COVENANT” Jer 34:17–20
God answers our doubts by the covenant WITH JESUS Mk 15:33; Is 53:6; Mt 27:46, Gal 3:13–14
Confidence in God doesn’t come from WITHIN US; it comes from what Jesus has done FOR US.
