    Issac told his brother Ishmael he would sacrifice his whole body and Yah heard him and tested him in this matter.

    Abraham never lied. Sarah was his half sister.

    Abraham had obeyed God many times in his walk with Him, but no test could have been more severe than the one in Genesis 22. God commanded, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love-Isaac-and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you” (Genesis 22:2).
    This was an astounding command because Isaac was the son of promise. God had promised several times that from Abraham’s own body would come a nation as multitudinous as the stars in heaven (Genesis 12:2-3; 15:4-5). Later, Abraham was specifically told that the promise would be through Isaac (Genesis 21:12).
    Given that God’s testing of Abraham involved a command to do something He elsewhere forbids (Read Jeremiah 7:31), we must ask, “Why did God command Abraham to sacrifice Isaac?” The Bible does not specifically address the answer to this question, but in our study of Scripture we can compile a few reasons:
    God’s command to sacrifice Isaac was to test Abraham’s faith. God’s tests prove and purify our faith. They cause us to SEEK HIM AND TRUST HIM MORE. God’s test of Abraham allowed His child-and all the world-to see the REALITY OF FAITH IN ACTION. Faith is more than an inner spiritual attitude; faith works (READ: James 2:18).
    God’s command to sacrifice Isaac was to validate Abraham as the “father” of all who have faith in God. “Abraham’s faith was credited to him as RIGHTEOUSNESS” (Romans 4:9). And we today “who have the faith of Abraham” also find that “he is the father of us all” (verse 16). Without Abraham’s response to the command to sacrifice Isaac, we would have difficulty knowing all that faith entails. God uses Abraham’s faith as an example of the TYPE OF FAITH REQUIRED FOR SALVATION.
    God’s command to sacrifice Isaac was to provide an example of ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE. After God gave the command, “early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey” and headed out with his son and the wood for a burnt offering (Genesis 22:3). There was no delay, no questioning, no arguing. JUST SIMPLE OBEDIENCE, which brought a blessing (verses 15-18).
    God’s command to sacrifice Isaac was to reveal God as JEHOVAH-JIREH. On the way up the mountain to the place of sacrifice, Isaac inquired as to the animal to be sacrificed, and his father said, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son” (Genesis 22:8). After God’s provision of a ram to take Isaac’s place on the altar, “Abraham called that place “THE LORD WILL PROVIDE” (verse 14). Thus we have another character-revealing name of God: YAHWEH-YIREH.
    God’s command to sacrifice Isaac was to foreshadow God’s SACRIFICE OF HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, JESUS CHRIST. The story of Abraham prefigures the New Testament teaching of the ATONEMENT, the sacrificial offering of the Lord Jesus on the cross for the SIN OF ALL MANKIND WHO WOULD REPENT/TURN FROM THEIR SIN AGAINST GOD AND BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AS SAVIOR AND LORD. Here are some of the parallels between the sacrifice of Isaac and the sacrifice of Christ:
    • “Take your son, your only son, whom you love” (Genesis 22:2); “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son” (John 3:16).
    • “Go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there” (Genesis 22:2); it is believed that this same area is where the city of Jerusalem was built many years later. Jesus was crucified in the same area that Isaac had been laid on the altar.
    • “Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering” (Genesis 22:2); “Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3).
    • “Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac” (Genesis 22:6); Jesus, “carrying his own cross,” walked to Calvary (John 19:17).
    • “But where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” (Genesis 22:7); John said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29).
    • “God himself will provide the lamb” (Genesis 22:8); Jesus is likened to a spotless lamb in 1 Peter 1:18-19 and a slain lamb in Revelation 5:6.
    • Isaac, who was likely a young man at the time of his sacrifice, acted in obedience to his father (Genesis 22:9); before His sacrifice, Jesus prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will” (Matthew 26:39).
    • Isaac was resurrected figuratively, and Jesus in reality: “Abraham reasoned that God could raise the dead, and figuratively speaking, he did receive Isaac back from death” (Hebrews 11:19); Jesus “was buried, and . . . was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:4).
    Many centuries after God’s command for Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, Jesus said, “Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad” (John 8:56). This is a reference to Abraham’s joy in seeing the ram caught in the thicket in Genesis 22. That ram was the SUBSTITUTE THAT WOULD SAVE ISAAC’S LIFE. Seeing that ram was, in essence, SEEING THE DAY OF CHRIST, THE SUBSTITUTE FOR ALL OF US. IN SAYING ALL OF THIS, I PRAY THAT MANY PEOPLE WILL REPENT/ TURN FROM THEIR SIN/WRONG DOING AND BELIEVE AND PUT THEIR TRUST IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST TO BE SAVED, FORGIVE, AND GOD THE FATHER WILL GRANT/YOU WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE AND THE HOPE OF HEAVEN (JOHN 3:16-21). GOD BLESS EVERYONE. ❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾‼️

      All the humans of the bible different shades of melanin. Pale skin burns in the sun and they didn't have sun screen back then. Here is some verses to help you out.
      Song of Solomon 1:5 I am dark but beautiful, O women of Jerusalem--dark as the tents of Kedar, dark as the curtains of Solomon's tents.
      Job 30:30 My skin is black upon me.
      Revelation 1:14-15 King James Version (KJV)
      His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; and his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
      The last verse was talking about Jesus.
      Google the Eve Gene, it's only found in black women today.
      Yahweh created human begins in the image of himself. Hu means color, melanin produces color. Pale(white) people don't have melanin.
      I hope this helps u to understand.

      This channel even depicted Jesus as a black African.
      If they do this just because of skin color, then how trustworthy are their videos and explanations of the Bible and the people of the Bible…?

    I am not sure why you state that it was the angel of the lord that spoke to Abraham concerning Sarah having a child.
    In the Septuagint and the KJV, Genesis 18:13-15 reads,
    And the Lord said to Abraham Why is it that Sarah has laughed in herself, saying, Shall I then indeed bear? but I am grown old.
    Shall anything be impossible with the Lord? At this time I will return to thee seasonably, and Sarah shall have a son.
    But Sarah denied, saying, I did not laugh, for she was afraid. And he said to her, Nay, but thou didst laugh.
    One of those 3 men was God himself.
    The rest of Genesis 18 details Abraham trying convince God to not destroy Sodom and Gomorrah is 10 righteous people are found there, after two of the men have left for those 2 cities.
    In the next chapter it is stated that the 2 men are angels, who were received by Lot.

    I’m sorry! I think I heard you say in this video clip that “Sarah is tired and disbelief because she is too old to give birth”? Are you sure Princess Sarah a believer at the beginning when she was arranged an marriage to ABRAM? Are you sure Sarah didn’t have children because she was too old but not in the point of views of either: 1/ She did consummate with her husband in regular basis needs but wasn’t be able to conceive children or having birth control. 2/ She had never done it with her husband. ???

      WHAT IS PAGAN ABOUT THE CROSS - IT IS A REMINDER OF EVERYTHING OUR SALVATION IS. THE ONLY CROSS WE SHOULD NOT BE SHOWING AS A SYMBOL IS ONE WITH JESUS STILL HANGING ON IT (AS THE ROMAN CATHOLICS DO), BECAUSE THE CROSS IS BARE NOW AND THE GRAVE IS EMPTY - HE IS RISEN INDEED!

      You give the cross a pagan meaning.
      That doesn’t make the cross pagan.
      Sun worship is also pagan. Hanging a picture of the sun doesn’t mean we worship that either.
