1 What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? 19 And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb.
Q & A：
- Considering the laws of the nature observed as in gravity, physics or chemistry, discuss if you believe that there is also a law of faith in action. Explain what Jesus meant in having faith in God, or the same kind of faith that God has, in speaking to the mountain to be moved and cast into the sea, believing in what he says and it will be done. (Rom 4:1,19; Rom 3:27; Mark 11:20-24; Zach 14:2-4)
- Explain Why we need faith as we live in this fallen world and what is the basis of our faith in order for us not to doubt in our hearts. Discuss how faith is released and how to make your faith active by referring to your personal testimony or the passage where Paul spoke the word, and the crippled man took a corresponding action in accordance to the faith that he had received and was healed. (Rom 10:17; Heb 11:1; Act 14:6-10)
- As Abraham is called the father of our faith, where no unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, including overlooking his aged body and the deadness of Sarah’s womb, discuss how you can act based on your faith, and what spoken and living Word (Rhema Word) have you received from God that could help your faith grow stronger. (Rom 4:17-19)
