6 TOGETHER IN SCRIPTURE Genesis 20:1 18 Context: Setting the Table After a stunning introduction, Genesis divides into two unequal halves of five sections each. The first half of the book (2:4 11:26) deals with the history of humanity as a whole, from its creation to the birth of Abram. The second half of the book (11:27 50:26) focuses on the history of the patriarchs. In this eighth installment of the story of Abraham, Sarah is once more placed in danger by the self-protecting lies of her husband. Content: Hearing the Text Read Genesis 20:1 18 together out loud. Credo: Believing the Truth While Abraham s intercession for the righteous of Sodom and Gomorrah was one of the high points in his walk with God, his renewed betrayal of his wife in Gerar was perhaps the lowest of all. Despite God s recent repetition of his promises, Abraham once more used his wife as a pawn endangering her honor for the sake of his own safety. In the face of Abraham s faithlessness, God remained faithful. Forcibly restraining the lust of Abimelech, he restored an untouched Sarah to her husband. The promises of God could not (and cannot!) be thwarted by the unworthiness of those to whom he made them. Conduct: Reshaping Our Walk Discuss the meaning of the text and then walk through the following application questions as you discuss the difference this meaning ought to make in our lives today. How might we be tempted to abuse God s grace by returning to sins that we got away with in the past? Examples: Cheating on our tax returns; Inflating our previous accomplishments; Reckless driving etc. What are some of the ways in which our selfish and sinful conduct could place stumbling blocks in the only path to everlasting life? Examples: Taking advantage of our co-workers for our own gain; Indulging in petty criticism of other believers to make ourselves look better, etc.
