Let’s look at the first thing now. God first called Abram (Abraham) out of a pagan society, in the land of Ur of the Chaldeans. There were no writings of God’s Word, no corporate temples to worship God, no example of faith in God, but Abram knew God! And because Abram knew God, he was called out from amongst his people and was chosen for God’s work. Turn to
Genesis 12:1.
