The Painful Call of God (2013)

On today's encore broadcast, Pastor Ray kicks off the study of the first Pilgrim in the scriptures, the one we call Abraham.

Scriptures Used During the Broadcast: Romans 4, Genesis 12

This week Pastor Ray is going to walk through the pilgrimage of Abram, who was subsequently renamed Abraham. The first question is what makes this pilgrimage so very painful? Listen as Pastor Ray walks us through the three requirements that Jesus lays out (which are laid out in multiple scriptures). Here’s one of these scriptures:

“Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.” (The underlining has been added for emphasis.)

Matthew 16:24 – Berean Study Bible

“Do you understand? These were the conditions laid down by Jesus Himself for a person who desired to enter into salvation. You see, it is not a question of whether or not I will accept Jesus.

The question is, will He accept me? And He will accept me only if I have met His conditions.
