Genesis 11:27–12:9.  Tony van Drimmelen.  Life in the perished Kingdom is harsh, cursed even.  The human race has been spiralling down, deeper and deeper into sin.  God has wiped out nearly everyone on the planet with the flood.  When the line of godly line of families is nearly snuffed out, God issues the call to Abraham and his family to restore His Kingdom on the earth.  Abraham responds even though he never sees the Kingdom restored.  How does he do it?  By faith he receives the promises of the Kingdom and it is credited to him as righteousness.  Abraham's life becomes a testimony to God's promises of a people, a place and the rule of God on earth.  According to the New Testament, the blessings given to Abraham come to us when we live by faith in Jesus.
