Gospel in Life
with Tim Keller
Abraham and the Test of Faith
Wednesday, April 16, 2025
How can you live a life so no matter what comes at you, you face it with equilibrium, you face it with poise, you face it with strength?
Today we come to an incident in Abraham’s life which is called a test. In the beginning of this particular brief account, it says God tested Abraham. This is the secret of a great life. The secret of a great life is to understand you become great only through tests.
We have to understand 1) there are tests, 2) how these tests work, 3) why we need these tests, and 4) how we pass these tests.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 30, 1994. Series: The Nature of Faith. Scripture: Hebrews 11:17-19.
