Abimelech hears God’s threat loud and clear, revealing something to us about the natural law written even on a pagan’s heart. More than that, this foreign king chides Abraham for bringing such threat of destruction upon his house and kingdom. What excuse does the Patriarch give? “I thought no one here feared God.” Abraham’s assumption is one that many have regarding the doctrine of Total Depravity. More than that, Christians must be careful not to self-righteously ascribe degeneracy, for the wicked world is watching and looking for hypocrisy within the church.

About the seriesThe Book of Genesis is the starting point of God’s covenant with His people. This book gives us the historical sketch of the creation, fall, and redemption of the world. Genesis is also a perfect litmus test to gauge whether or not a person fully trusts in the authority, sufficiency, and inerrancy of Scripture. Categories
