Deep dives
Abraham's Obedience to God's Command
Abraham's obedience to offer his son Isaac is highlighted in the first reading from Genesis 22. Although controversial, his act of obedience is seen as a demonstration of his faith. This obedience is significant as it is linked to the concept of justification by works, emphasizing the role of good deeds in maintaining a right relationship with God. This narrative challenges the Protestant belief of faith alone justifying individuals, presenting obedience and works as essential components.
