God’s Covenant with Abraham: Genesis 12 Bible Study Explained

B3L8 In this Bible study, Les Feldick opens Genesis 11 and 12 to explore the genealogy leading to Abraham and the pivotal moment God called him out of idolatry. Les also addresses the pagan origins of many modern church traditions and explains the foundational promises of the Abrahamic Covenant. Les Feldick continues his verse-by-verse teaching, starting with a candid look at how pagan customs like Easter eggs and Christmas trees entered church tradition. He then moves into Genesis 11, tracing the lineage from Shem to Terah and Abram. Les explains the significance of Abram leaving Ur of the Chaldees, the delay caused by his father Terah, and the ultimate "Call of Abraham" in Genesis 12. This lesson highlights God's sovereignty in separating a people for Himself and the eternal nature of His covenant with Israel.
