In Genesis God tests Abrahams faith by telling him to offer up his son Isaac as a sacrifice (Gen 22:1-19). Abraham was faithful and God intervened at the final moment. This is a story most of us are familiar with and you could have noticed a similarity in between this event and what God does by way of His personal Son in the New Testament. In each events a father is offering up his only son as a sacrifice for others. Casually studying the Genesis account you might have thought that the stories cease becoming similar when God spares Isaac, after-all Jesus did permit Himself to be a sacrifice for us, but the similarities do go on just a bit further. Lets take a close appear at Genesis 22:19 which happens at the end of the event Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off collectively for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba. (Gen 22:19) (NIV) Wheres Isaac? Clearly he was there, where else would he go? So if he was there why was he not mentioned? He was pointed out as they had been going up the mountain, so whats diverse now? In fact we are not told what Isaac is undertaking right after this occasion for two whole chapters. Lets see what he is doing the subsequent time we are told about him Now Isaac had come from Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in Negev. He went out to the field 1 day to meditate, and as he looked up, he saw camels approaching. Rebekah also looked up and saw Isaac.. ..Isaac brought her into the tent of his mother Sarah and he married Rebekah. (Gen 24:62-64, 67) (NIV) So the subsequent time we see Isaac in the Bible is when he is receiving his bride, which his fathers servant found for him. Now, this is very subtle but this specifically what is occurring right now. Identify more on this partner website - Click this hyperlink: Video Genesis Review . Jesus has left earth, His Fathers servant (the Holy Spirit) is retrieving His bride, and we will not see Him again until He receives us as His bride. Have you received Jesus in your heart as your Lord?.
