“Abraham is one of the outstanding characters in the Old Testament. He has been described in Scripture as ‘the friend of GOD’ and ‘the father of all who believe’… He is the supreme example of a man of faith. He trusted GOD even though he could not understand His leading.”

A growing faith is always being tested. The most prominent feature in Abraham’s life is the number of times God tested his character. Being truly human Abraham sometimes failed the tests, but God patiently continued to mould and shape him.
