Bible Study: Genesis 12-17
In this section of the Bible, the Lord began to lay down revelation of His plan of redemption. In what we will call the pre-historic period, we see God moving to limit the manifestation of evil through (a) the flood, (b) the shortening of lifespan and (c) the confusion of languages at Babel. With these things accomplished, God initiated a plan that would require millennia to complete. He would establish a King that would rule over all of mankind. It began with the call of Abram. Abram was on the leading edge of this revelation and, today, we find ourselves on the trailing edge. We believe that the completion of the redemption process is near.
Abram lived in Mesopotamia. The Mesopotamian valley was an early civilized area. To the west was Egypt, which was also a civilized area from very early times. God called Abram to leave his home and go to the place that He would show him. God led Abram to the land of Canaan, an area between these two main civilized areas of the ancient world. We must ask the question, “Why did God choose to bring Abram to the land of Canaan”? We will attempt to answer this question later.

Hebraic Roots Part 2: Covenants of God
God has established multiple covenants with groups of people in order to accomplish His work of redemption . Even as these groups are opposed by the emerging one world government, they need to overcome the barriers that have developed over millennia that allow them to maintain separate identities even as they both work toward the establishment of God’s kingdom in the earth.
