The Life of Isaac

Last week, we looked at the life of Abraham, who was promised he would be the father of a mighty nation. While the promise hadn’t been fulfilled yet, we saw that nation begin through the birth of Abraham and Sarah’s only son: Isaac. Isaac was a miracle baby and the son from whom God’s promise would be fulfilled. But then, God asks Abraham to give God Isaac as an offering (Genesis 22:2)! God wasn’t breaking His promise; instead, we’ll see through the life of Isaac, God was promising His only Son, Jesus, as our way of rescue!
