Foremost in Hebrews 11’s “gallery of faith” is Abraham, whom Paul elsewhere calls “the father of all who have faith.” Examining this important figure, Alistair Begg highlights two examples of faith in Abraham’s life: first, he obeyed the word of the Lord by packing up and leaving for unknown land; and second, he patiently waited for a son in fulfillment of God’s promise. Abraham and those grouped with him are heroes of faith. Will our portraits be found alongside theirs?
