At Church on Sun, March 8th Part A

Yes, I remembered to change my clock and arrived at church on time. (This was not always the case LOL).

As you know by know Lent is a somber time. We're leading into the Crucifixion. From the O.T. we read about Abraham and the covenant that God bestowed on him. Basically, God promises to make Abraham, the the father of all and with that all his descendants would "inherit the earth". Romans 4:13-25.

I think the most important thing here is that of all the people populating the world Abraham is chosen. Thus the Jews become God's chosen people. I don't know how God came upon this decision but it does say in Romans that Abraham was chosen through "the righteousness of faith."

A fact is a fact. God has selected a chosen people.
